Description

The issue here is whether the trial court abused its discretion when it refused to disqualify Nitla's counsel, who had reviewed privileged documents that the trial court ordered the opposing party to produce. The court of appeals issued mandamus, ordering the trial court to disqualify Nitla's counsel. In re Bank of Am., N.A., 45 S.W.3d 238, 245 (Tex. App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 2001). However, in so doing, the court of appeals misapplied the law and thus abused its discretion. Accordingly, we granted Nitla's motion for rehearing, and we now conditionally grant a writ of mandamus and direct the court of appeals to vacate its order.
