Opinion

DENIED and Opinion Filed August 27, 2024

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-24-00997-CV IN RE STANSLY MAPONGA & CHRISTINA MAPONGA, Relators Original Proceeding from the County Court at Law No. 2 Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 002-03818-2023 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Pedersen, III, Smith, and Garcia Opinion by Justice Pedersen, III Before the Court is relators’ August 21, 2024 petition for writ of mandamus.

Relators, who are proceeding pro se, ask this Court to compel the trial court to order real party in interest to return relators’ exempt personal property.

Relators’ petition does not comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure in numerous respects. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(a)–(d)(2), (g)–(h), (j), (k)(1)(A); TEX. R. APP. P. 52.7(a). Thus, relators’ petition does not meet the requirements of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure for consideration of mandamus relief. See In re Guillaume, No. 05-24-00765-CV, 2024 WL 3548511, at *1 (Tex. App.—Dallas July 26, 2024, orig. proceeding) (mem. op.) (denying mandamus relief based on relator’s failure to comply with several Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure).

Accordingly, we deny relators’ petition.
