In Re Covenant Medical Center

BRIAN QUINN, Chief Justice.

Covenant Medical Center and John Eaton, L.V.N. (collectively referred to as Covenant), petitioned this court for a writ of mandamus directing the trial court to 1) vacate its order granting Andrew Cord a 30-day grace period to file a medical expert report under § 13.01(g) of article 4590i of the Texas Revised Civil Statutes and 2) dismiss Cord’s suit. Cord was not entitled to an extension because the medical report tendered fell outside the scope of § 13.01(g), says Covenant, and, therefore, the trial court was obligated to dismiss the suit.1 We deny the application.
