OPINION
BRIGHAM, Justice.
The issue in this mandamus proceeding is whether Respondent the Honorable Bob McGrath abused his discretion in enjoining proceedings conducted by city aldermen pursuant to section 21.002 of the Local Government Code for removal of a mayor from office in a general-law municipality. Because we find Respondent abused his discretion, we conditionally grant the writ of mandamus.
