Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-15-00073-CV

In re James McCoy

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM TRAVIS COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator James McCoy filed a petition for writ of mandamus complaining of the Travis County District Clerk’s alleged failure to file McCoy’s petition for judicial review. This Court may issue writs of mandamus only against a district judge or county judge sitting in our district or to enforce our jurisdiction. See Tex. Gov’t Code § 22.221(a), (b). McCoy has not demonstrated that his petition falls within either of these categories. Therefore, we lack jurisdiction to grant the requested relief. See id. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
