Supreme Court of Texas

Petition for writ of mandamus challenging a court of appeals' grant of mandamus relief from an order granting plaintiffs a 30-day grace period to amend their expert reports is conditionally granted where: 1) mandamus review is not generally available for extensions; 2) an appeal would be adequate because the trial court's 30-day grace period would not frustrate former article 4590i; and 3) the benefits of mandamus review of a 30-day extension are outweighed by the detriments.
