In re KRISTOFER THOMAS KASTNER, Relator

Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION

          Relator, Kristofer Thomas Kastner, has filed a petition for writ of mandamus complaining of the trial court’s October 3, 2008 order in which the court sustained the district clerk’s challenge to relator’s affidavit of inability to pay and ordered that “the District Clerk of Harris County shall not proceed to process any further actions or settings on this case unless and until [relator] pays in full all filing fees.”[1] 

          We deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Keyes, Hanks, and Higley.
