Court of Appeals For The

First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-19-00228-CV ——————————— IN RE ENERGY XXI GULF COAST, INC. AND ENERGY XXI GIGS SERVICES, LLC, Relators ———————————— NO. 01-19-00254-CV ——————————— ENERGY XXI GULF COAST, INC. AND ENERGY XXI GIG S SERVICES, LLC, Appellants V. CORENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE TRUST, INC. AND GRAND ISLE CORRIDOR, LP, Appellees

On Appeal from the 11th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Case No. 2019-20787

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Energy XXI Gulf Coast, Inc. and Energy XXI GIGS Services, LLC (“Energy XXI”), filed a petition for writ of mandamus and a related interlocutory appeal challenging the trial court’s March 28, 2019 “Order Granting Temporary Restraining Order and Setting Hearing for Temporary Injunction.”1 We deny the petition and lift the stay previously imposed.

Energy XXI’s interlocutory appeal, which was filed in the alternative, does not raise any new or different arguments other than those addressed in the mandamus proceeding. Temporary restraining orders cannot be challenged by interlocutory appeal. See Nikolouzos v. St. Luke’s Episcopal Hosp., 162 S.W.3d 678, 680–81 (Tex. App.––Houston [14th Dist.] 2005, no pet.); TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE § 54.014(a) (authorizing interlocutory appeals from specific types of orders). Therefore, we dismiss the interlocutory appeal for want of jurisdiction.
