| 04/04/2002 | Order/Dispositional | Filed Order Granting Petition. Order Granting Petition for Rehearing, Vacating Previous Order, Granting Petition for a Writ of Mandamus in Part in Docket No. 36390, and Granting Petition for a Writ of Prohibition in Part in Docket No. 35549. We grant Hyatt's petition for rehearing, vacate our June 13, 2001 order and issue this order in its place. We conclude that the district court should have declined to exercise jurisdiction over the negligence claim as a matter of comity. Accordingly, we grant the petition in Docket No. 36390 in part; the clerk of this court shall issue a writ of mandamus directing the district court to grant Franchise Tax Board's motion for summary judgment as to the negligence claim. We deny the petition in Docket No. 36390 with respect to the intentional tort claims, and we deny the alternative petition to limit the scope of trial. We conclude that the district court exceeded its jurisdiction by ordering the release of one privileged document, but that Franchise Tax Board has not demonstrated that the district court exceeded its jurisdiction by ordering it to release any of the other discovery documents at issue. Accordingly, we grant the petition in Docket No. 35549 in part; the clerk of this court shall issue a writ of prohibition prohibiting the district court from requiring Franchise Tax Board to release document FTB No. 07381. We deny the writ petition in Docket No. 35549 with respect to all other documents. We vacate our stay of the district court proceedings. fn28 [The Honorable Nancy Becker, Justice, voluntarily recused herself from participation in the decision of this matter.] EN BANC-WM/CY/MS/DA/ML.
