In Re Eidan Kazaz v. the State of Texas
Citation: Not availableDocket: 14-22-00930-CV
Court: Court of Appeals of Texas; March 14, 2023; Texas; State Appellate Court
Original Court Document: View Document
Eidan Kazaz filed a petition for a writ of mandamus on December 21, 2022, seeking to compel Judge Tristan Longino of the 245th District Court in Harris County, Texas, to vacate an October 5, 2022, order requiring him to complete a Batterers Intervention and Prevention Program (BIPP) as a condition for unsupervised access to his children. Following Judge Longino's departure from office on December 31, 2022, the court abated the proceeding to allow his successor, Judge Angela M. Lancelin, to address the request. On February 15, 2023, Judge Lancelin issued an order modifying the temporary orders, concluding that the requirement for Kazaz to complete the BIPP was not supported by the record. Consequently, she dissolved the condition that BIPP completion was necessary for consideration of unsupervised access. Other terms of the November 5, 2022, temporary order remained unchanged, although there was a noted scrivener’s error in referencing the orders. The original proceeding was reinstated, and since Judge Lancelin's modification rendered Kazaz's relief sought in the mandamus petition moot, the court dismissed the petition for writ of mandamus. The panel consisted of Chief Justice Christopher and Justices Bourliot and Wilson.
