Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

OPINION

This original mandamus proceeding arises from a suit affecting the parent-child relationship filed by real parties in interest, Teresa Hall (―Terri‖) and Charles Morgan Hall, Jr. (―Charlie‖), to obtain managing conservatorship of their two minor grandchildren, J.M. and R.M. The children’s parents, relators, William Michael McDaniel (―Michael‖) and Autumn Melissa McDaniel (―Autumn‖), moved to dismiss the suit, contending that the grandparents lack standing. The trial court denied the motion to dismiss and rendered temporary orders appointing the Halls as managing conservators of J.M. and R.M. The McDaniels bring this original mandamus proceeding requesting this Court to order the trial court to vacate the temporary orders and to sign an order dismissing the Halls’ suit on the ground that the Halls lack standing.*fn1
