Relator, Adolfo Cortinas, pro se, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in the above cause on April 16, 2008. The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus, is of the opinion that relator has not shown himself entitled to the relief sought. The petition generally fails to comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 52.3 and fails to establish that the district court: (1) had a legal duty to perform a nondiscretionary act, (2) was asked to perform the act, and (3) failed or refused to do so. See In re Chavez, 62 S.W.3d 225, 228 (Tex. App.-Amarillo 2001, orig. proceeding). Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
