DENY and Opinion Filed January 20, 2022

S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-22-00021-CV IN RE TRACY NIXON, Relator Original Proceeding from the 162nd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Schenck, Reichek, and Carlyle Opinion by Justice Reichek In this original proceeding, relator is a vexatious litigant subject to a prefiling order under chapter 11 of the civil practice and remedies code. See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE § 11.101. He challenges the Local Administrative Judge’s order denying his request for permission to file new litigation.

Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relator to show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion and that he lacks an adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). Based on our review of the petition and the record, we conclude that relator has failed to show his entitlement to the relief requested. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).

Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus.
