In Re Adm Investor Services, Inc.
Texas Supreme Court
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Green
In this case, we consider whether the trial court abused its discretion by denying a motion to dismiss premised on a forum-selection clause. We conclude that it did. The real party in interest did not overcome the presumption against the relator’s waiving its right to enforce the forum-selection clause, or satisfy her burden to demonstrate that enforcing the clause would be unreasonable and unjust. Accordingly, we conditionally grant the relator’s petition *373for writ of mandamus and order the trial court to dismiss the case as to the relator.
