Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-21-00667-CV
IN RE: YANIKA DANIELS, Relator
Original Proceeding from the 303rd Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DF-21-08690 MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Osborne, Pedersen, III, and Goldstein
Opinion by Justice Osborne
Yanika Daniels (Realtor) filed a pro se petition1 seeking a writ of mandamus ordering the judge of the 303rd Judicial District Court, Dallas County, Texas to vacate the June 23, 2021 “temporary orders” in the underlying suit affecting the parent-child relationship or, in the alternative, to issue a “writ of habeas corpus” compelling the return of her child. Relator also filed her second motion for emergency relief on October 11, 2021.
Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.9 prohibits the filing of documents containing sensitive data, including the name of any person who was a minor when the underlying suit was filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.9. A document containing sensitive information may not be filed with the court unless the sensitive information is redacted or it is required by a statute, court rule, or administrative regulation. See id. 9.9(b). Both Relator’s appendix, which is attached to her mandamus petition, and her October 11, 2021 motion for emergency relief include documents showing prohibited sensitive data.2
Accordingly, we strike both Relator’s October 11, 2021 motion for emergency relief and Relator’s August 5, 2021 petition for writ of mandamus. See id. 9.9. Also, we direct the Clerk of the Court to remove those documents from this Court’s website. See id. 9.9(e).
This original proceeding is dismissed without prejudice.
