COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG

IN RE R. WAYNE JOHNSON On Petition for Writ of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Valdez, Justice Garza, and Justice Vela

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam1 Relator, R. Wayne Johnson, appearing pro se, has filed a petition for writ of mandamus arguing that respondent, the presiding judge of the 156th District Court of Bee County, Texas, has issued a void order dismissing the underlying lawsuit brought by relator for failure to obtain permission to file suit from the local administrative judge. See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE ANN. §§ 11.101, 11.103 (West 2002) (requiring persons declared vexatious litigants to obtain permission from the local administrative judge before filing suit in district court).

Having reviewed and fully considered relator’s petition, this Court is of the opinion that relator has not shown himself entitled to the relief requested and that the petition should be denied. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). Accordingly, relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED.

PER CURIAM Delivered and filed the 18th day of January, 2012.
