MEMORANDUM OPINION
Klein Investments, Inc., Relator, petitioned for mandamus relief from an order
of an assigned judge denying a motion to seal court records in a civil case. See
generally Tex. R. Civ. P. 76a. Relator has an adequate remedy by appeal. See id
76a.8. (“Any order (or portion of an order or judgment) relating to sealing or
unsealing court records shall be deemed to be severed from the case and a final
1
judgment which may be appealed by any party or intervenor who participated in the
hearing preceding issuance of such order.”).1
PETITION DENIED.
PER CURIAM
Submitted on August 15, 2018
Opinion Delivered August 16, 2018
Before McKeithen, C.J., Kreger and Johnson, JJ.
1
Relator complains of a separate, earlier order by a judge who recused himself
before Relator filed the mandamus petition. The successor judge is the appropriate
respondent. See In re Blevins, 480 S.W.3d 542, 543-44 (Tex. 2013).
