Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

---

MEMORANDUM OPINIONRelators Highland Medial Center L.P. d/b/a Highland Medical Center, Highland Health Systems, Inc., CHS/Community Health Systems, Inc., and Community Health Systems, Inc. filed a petition for writ of mandamus complaining of Judge Hancock’s September 5, 2006 oral ruling, which denied their motion for separate trials of six suits pending in the trial court.

          We deny the petition for a writ of mandamus and deny, as moot, all pending motions, including relators’ motion for temporary relief.

          It is so ORDERED.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Nuchia, Jennings, and Higley.
