OPINION

EVELYN V. KEYES, Justice.

Relator, James E. Bashaw & Co. (“JEB-CO”), filed a petition for writ of mandamus challenging the trial court’s September 29, 2008 order denying its motion to compel arbitration in the underlying lawsuit between real party in interest, A. Gary Ko-vacs, and JEBCO for breach of contract, tortious interference, and libel and slander. 1 In its sole issue, JEBCO argues that the trial court abused its discretion and committed a clear error of law by denying JEBCO’s motion to compel Kovacs to arbitrate his claims against JEBCO.

We conditionally grant mandamus relief.
