                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Weingarten Realty Investors filed a petition for writ of mandamus challenging

the trial court’s July 5, 2021 order granting in part the motion to compel filed by real

parties in interest, Landry’s Seafood Inn & Oyster Bar-Galveston, Inc. (“La Griglia”)

and Morton’s of Chicago/Houston, Inc. (“Morton’s”).1 Weingarten also sought

emergency relief.

requested a response. Real parties in interest, Landry’s Seafood Inn & Oyster Bar-
