IN RE GALEN F. BLACK, Relator
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
WRIT OF MANDAMUS
209th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1709295
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On March 6, 2023, relator Galen F. Black filed a petition for writ of
mandamus and/or prohibition in this Court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221;
see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this Court to compel the
Honorable Brian Warren, presiding judge of the 209th District Court of Harris
County, to rule on his motion for appointment of counsel.
By order issued March 28, 2023, this Court notified relator that his petition
did not comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See Tex. R. App. P.
52.3(j); 52.7(a). In the order, the Court further notified relator that his petition for
writ of mandamus and/or prohibition would be dismissed unless relator
supplemented and/or amended his petition to addresses the issues identified before
April 28, 2023. Relator has not corrected the deficiencies with his petition.
Accordingly, we dismiss relator’s petition for writ of mandamus and/or
prohibition.
PER CURIAM
