In re Alfonso Moreno

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM WILLIAMSON COUNTY

M E M O R AN D U M O P I N I O N

Relator Alfonso Moreno filed a petition for writ of mandamus1 directed to the Williamson County Justice of the Peace, Precinct 3. However, we may issue writs of mandamus only against a district judge or county judge sitting in our district, or to enforce our jurisdiction, none of which are implicated here. See Tex. Const. art. V, § 6; Tex. Gov’t Code § 22.221(b); see also In re Barrera, No. 04-14-00464-CV, 2014 Tex. App. LEXIS 7144, at *1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio July 2, 2014, orig. proceeding) (dismissing for want of jurisdiction relator’s mandamus petition directed to justice of the peace).

The petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
