Relator seeks a writ of mandamus to compel the Jefferson County District Attorney to bring relator to trial or dismiss his case. Relator has not shown that the writ is necessary to enforce our jurisdiction. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221 (Vernon Supp. 2003). The District Attorney is not one of the persons against whom we may issue a writ of mandamus other than to protect our jurisdiction. Id.

The petition for writ of mandamus, filed March 6, 2003, is DENIED.

PER CURIAM
