No. 08-02-00227-CV

 

AN ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

 

IN MANDAMUS

 

                                   

 

 

O P I N I O N

 

Relator, The State of Texas, acting through the Compact Administrator,[1] asks this Court to issue a writ of mandamus against Respondent, the Honorable Al Walvoord, Judge of the County Court at Law of Midland County.  Because there is no Order in the record before us, it is unclear whether an Order was entered by the trial court in the underlying cause.  Therefore, based on the record before us, we deny the petition.  See Tex. R. App. P. 52.7(a), 52.8(a).  Our denial of the petition shall not be construed as a ruling on the merits.


Additionally, Relator filed a Motion to Seal Appendices Record since the Real Party in Interest, S.E.K., is a minor. We grant the motion to seal.
