On Petition for a Writ of Mandamus

Regarding Case 09-1941-CR of the 274th Judicial District Court of

Guadalupe County


Womack, J., filed a concurring statement, in which Johnson, Keasler, and Hervey, JJ., joined.



I join the Court's order dismissing the relator's petition with the understanding that the dismissal is based, not on the merits of the petition, but on the relator's failure to follow the requirement of Rule of Appellate Procedure 72.1: "A motion for leave to file must accompany an original petition for … mandamus …."
