December 14, 200751 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 236

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the Court of Appeals possessed jurisdiction to review an order compelling arbitration under the Texas Arbitration Act by mandamus, rejecting the view that prior denials of mandamus barred such review. Accordingly, the Court reversed the appellate court’s dismissal and remanded for a merits review of the arbitration order.
