COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Benavides
Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion (1)
Relator, Fernando Garcia, pro se, seeks a writ of mandamus ordering the trial court to provide him with the record pertaining to his conviction for intoxication manslaughter. (2) This Court previously affirmed the conviction. See Garcia v. State, No. 13-06-00488-CR, 2008 Tex. App. LEXIS 5990, at *8 (Tex. App.-Corpus Christi Aug. 7, 2008, no pet.) (mem. op. not designated for publication). In that appeal, relator was represented by appointed counsel.
The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus, is of the opinion that relator has not shown himself entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
