      Maria Mireles-Poulat, Relator, filed a petition for a writ of mandamus and a

motion for temporary relief. See Tex. R. App. P. 52. Relator is a defendant in Trial

Cause Number 19-07-09268-CV, AXA Seguros, S.A. de C.V. Maria Luisa Mireles-

Poulat, et al. Relator seeks a writ compelling the Honorable Vincenzo J. Santini,

Judge of the 457th District Court of Montgomery County, Texas, to vacate two

September 27, 2021 orders compelling Relator to respond to discovery requests. See

Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221.

                                         1
      Relator requests that enforcement proceedings in the trial court be stayed

while this Court considers the mandamus petition. The Court finds temporary relief

is necessary to prevent undue prejudice. It is ORDERED that the hearing on the

Application for Show Cause Order and Motion for Contempt and Sanctions, and

further enforcement of the trial court’s discovery orders of September 27, 2021, in

Trial Cause Number 19-07-09268-CV are STAYED until our opinion issues or until

further order of this Court. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(b). No bond is required of

Relator as a condition to any relief herein granted.

      MOTION FOR TEMPORARY RELIEF GRANTED.

      ORDER ENTERED February 1, 2022.
