IN RE David Cepeda JONES


Original Mandamus Proceeding


PER CURIAM

 

Sitting:            Sarah B. Duncan, Justice

Karen Angelini, Justice

Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice


Delivered and Filed: January 11, 2006


PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION; MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE DISMISSED AS MOOT

            On December 30, 2005, David Cepeda Jones filed a petition for a writ of mandamus complaining that Ed Schweninger of the Bexar County District Attorney’s Office has failed to act on civil “claim letters” submitted by Jones.

            This court does not have mandamus jurisdiction over the district attorney or employees of her office clerks unless it is shown that issuance of the writ is necessary to enforce our jurisdiction. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221(a), (b) (Vernon 2004). Jones has made no such allegation or showing. We therefore dismiss the petition for want of jurisdiction.

            No costs shall be assessed against relator because he is indigent.
