MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-08-00407-CR IN RE Juan Raul ESCAMILLA Original Mandamus Proceeding1 PER CURIAM Sitting: Catherine Stone, Justice Karen Angelini, Justice Steven C. Hilbig, Justice Delivered and filed: July 16, 2008 PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION On June 12, 2008, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus, asking this court to issue a subpoena directing the district clerk to provide him with certain records from his criminal trial. This court does not have jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus against a district clerk unless such writ is necessary to enforce our jurisdiction. In re Coronado, 980 S.W.2d 691, 692 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1998, orig. proceeding); see TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. § 22.221(a), (b) (Vernon 2004).

Relator does not allege or show a writ is necessary to enforce our jurisdiction. Accordingly, relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
