Deny and Opinion Filed July 16, 2014
S In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-14-00876-CV
IN RE FIESTA MART, INC., Relator
Original Proceeding from the County Court at Law No. 1
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. CC-13-06510-A
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Wright, Justices FitzGerald and Francis
Opinion by Chief Justice Wright
Before the Court is relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. The rules of appellate
procedure require that petitions for writs of mandamus include the unequivocal statement that the
person filing the petition “has reviewed the petition and concluded that every factual statement is
supported by competent evidence included in the appendix or record.” TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(j).
Relator’s certification does not satisfy the rules of appellate procedure. See In re Butler, 270
S.W.3d 757, 758–59 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2008, orig. proceeding) (denying petition for writ of
mandamus because petition and record not authenticated as required by the Texas Rules of
Appellate Procedure).
Accordingly, we DENY relator’s petition for writ of mandamus.
