Opinion

In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont __________________ NO. 09-19-00326-CR __________________

IN RE THOMAS WAYNE PARKER __________________________________________________________________ Original Proceeding Criminal District Court of Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 16-26054 __________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION Relator Thomas Wayne Parker filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus, in which he alleges that the trial court has refused to rule on his motion to award him the proper amount of pre-sentence jail-time credits. Parker has not demonstrated that he is clearly entitled to mandamus relief from this Court. See State ex rel. Hill v. Court of Appeals for Fifth Dist., 34 S.W.3d 924, 927 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001) (holding that to establish entitlement to a writ of mandamus, a relator must establish that the trial court failed to perform a ministerial duty and that relator has no other

adequate legal remedy). Accordingly, we deny relief on the petition for writ of mandamus.

PETITION DENIED.

PER CURIAM

Submitted on October 1, 2019 Opinion Delivered October 2, 2019 Do Not Publish Before Kreger, Horton, and Johnson, JJ.
