IN RE CHARLES E. HUTCHINSON, Relator
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
WRIT OF MANDAMUS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On August 30, 2010, Relator, Charles E. Hutchinson, 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 complains of an order issued by the Honorable Donald L. Kroewer of the 12th District Court of Walker County, Texas.
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 court judge that is not in this court of appeals’ district, 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 Seymore, Boyce, and Christopher.
