Delivered and Filed: March 4, 2020

           Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus asked this court to direct the trial court “to vacate

its December 4, 2019 order dismissing [relator’s] contribution counterclaim.” I concur in the

majority’s denial of relator’s petition. However, I write separately to clarify that our denial of

relator’s petition should not be interpreted as conflicting with the trial court’s order that relator’s

“allegations of contributory negligence and contribution credits remain.”
