IN RE PATRICK BROADNAX, Relator
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
WRIT OF MANDAMUS
179TH District Court
Harris County
Trial Court Cause No. 962584-A
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On July 29, 2011, Relator, Patrick Broadnax, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann §22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.1. Relator requests we compel the District Clerk of Harris County, Texas, to forward records to him.
This Court’s mandamus jurisdiction is governed by section 22.221 of the Texas Government Code. Section 22.221 expressly limits the mandamus jurisdiction of the courts of appeals to: (1) writs against a district court judge or county court judge in the court of appeals’ district, and (2) all writs necessary to enforce the court of appeals’ jurisdiction. Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221 (Vernon 2004). Because the petition for writ of mandamus is directed toward a district clerk and is not necessary to enforce this court’s jurisdiction, we have no jurisdiction. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221(b)(1).
Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is ordered dismissed.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Anderson, Brown, and Christopher.
