In Re Mark Molina v. the State of Texas
In Re Mark Molina v. the State of Texas
Opinion
Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas May 10, 2023 No. 04-23-00422-CR IN RE Mark MOLINA Original Proceeding 1 ORDER On April 26, 2023, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus. Relator is represented by trial counsel below; therefore, he is not entitled to hybrid representation. See Patrick v. State, 906 S.W.2d 481, 498 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995). The absence of a right to hybrid representation means relator’s pro se mandamus petition will be treated as presenting nothing for this court’s review.
See id.; see also Gray v. Shipley, 877 S.W.2d 806, 806 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1994, orig. proceeding). Accordingly, relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
It is so ORDERED on May 10, 2023.
