D&P Holdings, Inc. d/b/a Diversified Insurance Facilities, along with John F. Armstrong and G. Edward Goodwin, filed a petition for a writ of mandamus, asserting that the trial court acted with an abuse of discretion by disqualifying their counsel. The court clarified that mandamus relief is appropriate only in cases of clear abuse of discretion that cannot be rectified through an appeal. After reviewing the relevant records and petition, the court found no evidence supporting the relators' claim of abuse of discretion by the trial court. Consequently, the stay order issued on May 22, 2009, was lifted, and the petition for writ of mandamus was denied. The opinion was delivered on June 11, 2009, by a panel including Chief Justice McKeithen and Justices Kreger and Horton.
