Laches Latches the Mandamus Door.

After reviewing the several cases that find laches based on an unexplained four-month delay, In re Bottled Blonde Dallas LLC holds: “Here, relator waited more than seven months from the challenged order, and with only a month remaining before trial, to file this petition. Relator has offered no explanation for this lengthy delay. Accordingly, because we conclude that relator’s unexplained delay bars its right to mandamus relief, we deny mandamus relief.” No. 05-22-00353-CV (April 22, 2022) (mem. op.).
