IN RE JIMMIE MARK PARROTT, JR., Relator
Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator, Jimmie Mark Parrott, Jr., has filed a petition for writ of mandamus
requesting that this Court compel the trial court in his underlying civil suit to
“schedule a pretrial date, without delay, requiring all parties to appear; secure a
bench warrant so that Relator can be present in person; rule on all motions and
pretrial matters; and then proceed to trial the following week, not giving the
Defendant any future continuances.” *
We deny the petition. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k) (appendix must contain “a
certified or sworn copy of any order complained of, or any other document
showing the matter complained of”); TEX. R. APP. P. 52.7(a)(1) (relator must file
with petition “a certified or sworn copy of every document that is material to the
relator’s claim for relief and that was filed in any underlying proceeding”); see also
Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992) (it is relator’s burden to
provide record sufficient to establish right to relief). Any pending motions are
dismissed as moot.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Keyes, Bland, and Massengale.
*
The underlying case is Jimmie Mark Parrot, Jr. v. Beverly D. Melontree, cause
number 2012-75176, pending in the 125th District Court of Harris County, Texas,
the Honorable Kyle Carter presiding.
