                         IN RE BESSIE ESTEP, Relator

            Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Relator, Bessie Estep, filed a petition for writ of mandamus challenging the

trial court’s March 25, 2024 “Order Retaining Suit on Court’s Docket and Setting

Court Proceeding Dates” in a suit to terminate the parental rights of A.G., mother.1

Estep requests that this Court grant her petition for writ of mandamus and direct the

      The underlying case is In the Interest of G.E.-G., a Child, Case No. 23-CP-0026, in
      the 306th District Court of Galveston County, Texas, the Honorable Robert
      Mayfield presiding.
trial court to vacate its March 25, 2024 Order Retaining Suit and a subsequent March

29, 2024 order directing the parties to participate in mediation on or before May 17,

2024.

        Our review of Estep’s mandamus petition reflects that she has failed to

establish that she is entitled to mandamus relief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.7(a)(1); see

also Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 839–40 (Tex. 1992). Accordingly, we deny

Estep’s petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). We further

dismiss all pending motions as moot.

                                  PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Adams and Justices Guerra and Farris.
