TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-19-00205-CV

In re David Bryan Ballard

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM WILLIAMSON COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator, David Bryan Ballard, has filed a document with this Court, which we have construed as a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court. See Surgitek, Bristol–Myers Corp. v. Abel, 997 S.W.2d 598, 601 (Tex. 1999) (courts look to substance of pleading rather than its caption or form to determine its nature); see also Tex. Gov’t Code § 22.221; Tex. R. App. P. 52.1. The petition for writ of mandamus is denied. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
