Overruled in part
A reviewed court has overruled part of this case’s holding. Jampole v. Touchy was overruled in part on the standard for obtaining mandamus. The Texas Supreme Court in Walker v. Packer rejected the suggestion that an appeal is inadequate merely because it would take more time or cost more than mandamus.
More on how this was screened

Jampole's other discovery principles continue to be cited. All 31 flagged citations have been read; the one confirmed treatment is listed below.

Every treatment on this page is written from the citing opinion itself, with a verbatim quote, never copied from a commercial citator. A citation flagged by our screen but not shown here was read and found not to weaken this case.

31 later cases cite Jampole v. Touchy; 31 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.

    We therefore disapprove of Cleveland, Crane, Jampole and any other authorities to the extent that they imply that a remedy by appeal is inadequate merely because it might involve more delay or cost than mandamus.
