IN RE KRISTAL TIMISH WALKER A/K/A KRISTAL TIMISHA WALKER, Relator

Original Proceeding On Petition For Writ Of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator, Kristal Timish Walker, has filed a petition for writ of mandamus complaining that Associate Judge Aneeta Jamal of the 314th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas abused her discretion by failing to dismiss its suit to terminate the parent child relationship.

We have general mandamus jurisdiction over a judge of a district or county court in the Court’s court of appeals district. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221(b) (Veronon 2004). Accordingly, we have no mandamus jurisdiction over an associate judge. We dismiss the petition for writ of mandamus.      

Per Curiam

Panel consists of Justices Taft, Jennings, and Bland.
