In The
Court of Appeals
Seventh District of Texas at Amarillo
No. 07-15-00237-CR
IN RE R. WAYNE JOHNSON, RELATOR
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
August 5, 2015
EN BANC ORDER ON MOTION TO RECUSE
Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ.
Relator R. Wayne Johnson, a prison inmate appearing pro se, filed a petition
asking the court to issue a writ of mandamus against respondent the Honorable Ana
Estevez, judge of the 251st District Court of Potter County.
The petition complies with almost none of the requirements of appellate rule 52.3
and, in particular, contains no clear statement of facts or argument. See TEX. R. APP. P.
52.3(g), (h). We discern, however, that it contains a motion to recuse, directed to this
Court. The grounds for recusal are those Johnson has raised in previous such motions
in this Court, our asserted bias and prejudice against him. In re Johnson, No. 07-15-
00183-CR, 2015 Tex. App. LEXIS 6250, at *1-2 (Tex. App.—Amarillo June 17, 2015,
orig. proceeding) (per curiam order) (citing In re Johnson, 07-04-0465-CV, 2004 Tex.
App. LEXIS 9157 (Tex. App.—Amarillo Oct. 15, 2004, orig. proceeding) (per curiam,
mem. op.).
Johnson does not state whether the motion is directed to the entire court or the
panel assigned his pending original proceeding. The motion was considered en banc,
by means of the procedure detailed in In re Johnson, 2015 Tex. App. LEXIS 6250, at *3-
4. The en banc court has found the motion to recuse is properly denied, as to each
member of the panel. Accordingly, the motion to recuse is denied.
