In Re Acceptance Insurance Co‪.‬

Relator, Acceptance Insurance Company, seeks mandamus relief against the Honorable Paul Enlow, Judge of the 141st Judicial District Court of Tarrant County. Relator complains of Judge Enlow's rulings in sua sponte scheduling and conducting a hearing to investigate whether to impose sanctions against relator for possible violations of court orders for mediation. Specifically, relator complains of Judge Enlow's overruling of its objections to lack of any notice or pleadings advising it of the nature of the charges as well as his scheduling of a second hearing, over relator's continued objections, for further investigation of relator's possible lack of compliance with the court's mediation orders. We conditionally grant the petition for writ of mandamus.
