Original Mandamus Proceeding

ORDER

Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice

Relators filed a petition for writ of mandamus to which the real parties in interest responded. After considering the petition and the response, this court concludes the complaint presented by relators is not ripe for our consideration. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). This court's opinion will issue at a later date.

It is so ORDERED on January 30, 2020.
