Mandamus Granted for Lack of Jurisdiction

August 2, 2013

The court of appeals conditionally granted mandamus relief after the trial court appointed a receiver over relators and then expanded the powers of that receiver.  The court of appeals found that the trial court’s orders were void as to relators because they were not served with process or otherwise notified of the receivership proceedings, which meant the trial court had no jurisdiction over relators.
