Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mark M. Donheiser, Brian G. Hamilton, P. Michael Jung, Dallas, David S. Lill, Austin, Ben Haney Admire, Rhonda Johnson Byrd, David P. Herrick, Dallas, for relators.

OWEN, Justice, delivered the opinion of the Court, in which PHILLIPS, Chief Justice, ENOCH, SPECTOR, BAKER and ABBOTT, Justices, joined.

This original proceeding arises out of the breast implant litigation. The issue before us is whether the trial court abused its discretion in consolidating for trial the claims of nine plaintiffs against three defendants. Based on the record before us, we cannot say that the trial court abused its discretion.
