       Based on the Court’s opinion of this date, we CONDITIONALLY GRANT relators’

petition for writ of mandamus. We ORDER the trial judge, the Honorable D’Metria Benson, to

vacate her July 23, 2018 order denying relators’ plea in abatement and enter an order granting

the plea in abatement. We further ORDER the trial judge to file with this Court within fifteen

(15) days of the date of this order, a certified copy of her order issued in compliance with this

order. Should the trial court fail to comply with the order, the writ will issue.

       We ORDER that relators recover their costs of this original proceeding, if any, from real

party in interest Kolby Listenbee.
