IN RE: KINDER MORGAN SACROC (2023)

Supreme Court of Texas.

IN RE: KINDER MORGAN SACROC, LP; Kinder Morgan CO2 Co., LP; Kinder Morgan Production Co., L.P.; and Kinder Morgan Production Co., LLC, Relators

No. 22-0156

Decided: June 23, 2023

D. Kirk Swinney, for Other interested party Scurry County Appraisal District. D. Brent Lemon, Dallas, for Real Parties in Interests Scurry County Hospital District d/b/a Cogdell Memorial Hospital, Scurry County, Snyder Independent School District, Scurry County Junior College District d/b/a Western Texas College. Michael Heidler, Leslie Mason, Austin, Benjamin Jack Shepherd, Christopher Vasil Popov, James Leader Jr., Houston, Harper Estes, Midland, for Relators.

Relators seek mandamus relief from the district court's denial of their motion challenging opposing counsel's authority under Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 12. This Court recently decided Pecos County Appraisal District v. Iraan-Sheffield Independent School District, ––– S.W.3d ––––, 2023 WL 3556711 (Tex. 2023), which involved a Rule 12 motion in similar litigation. The petition for writ of mandamus is denied, but the district court should reconsider its ruling in light of this Court's recent decision.
