in Re Keith Russell Judd

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-13-00073-CV In re Keith Russell Judd ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM TRAVIS COUNTY MEMORANDUM OPINION Relator Keith Russell Judd, an inmate in federal prison, has filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus, asking this Court to order the district court to produce a copy of the record in the underlying lawsuit that Judd has filed against the Texas Secretary of State and the Democratic Party of the State of Texas. Judd asserts that he needs a copy of the record for use as an “appendix” in another petition for writ of mandamus, this one relating to the district court’s alleged failure to rule on his various motions for default judgment and summary judgment in the underlying suit.1 Judd has failed to establish that he is entitled to the extraordinary relief requested. See Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 839-44 (Tex. 1992); Barnes v. State, 832 S.W.2d 424, 426 (Tex.
