IN RE WILLIAM SOLOMON LEWIS, Relator
Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On January 3, 2014, the relator, William Solomon Lewis, filed a petition for
writ of mandamus, seeking to compel the trial court to rule on relator’s “motion for
return of the defendant’s seized property.”1
We deny the petition for writ of mandamus.2

The underlying case is State v. William Solomon Lewis, No. 1261666, in the 184th
District Court of Harris County Texas, the Honorable Jan Krocker presiding.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Jennings, Higley, and Sharp.
Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is procedurally defective. See TEX. R.
APP. 9.5 (requiring that document filed with Court must be served on all parties
and that certificate of service contain date, manner of service, name and address of
each person served, and, if person served is party’s attorney, the name of party
represented by that attorney); TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(j) (requiring person filing
petition to certify that every factual statement in petition is supported by
competent evidence included in appendix or record); TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k)
(requiring that petition include appendix containing certified or sworn copy of any
document showing matter complained of); TEX. R. APP. P. 52.7 (requiring relator
to file record with the petition containing certified or sworn copy of every
document that is material to relator’s claim).
