Relators, Kaplan
Higher Education Corporation and Leticia Ventura, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in the above cause on September 29, 2005.  The Court, having examined and fully
considered the petition for writ of mandamus, the response filed by real parties in interest,[2]
relators' reply, real parties' surreply, the record, and the supplemental
record, is of the opinion that relators have not shown themselves entitled to
the relief sought.  Accordingly, the
petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED. 
See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
Furthermore, the temporary stay granted on November
22, 2005, is lifted.
