Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-20-00054-CV
IN RE STATE OF TEXAS, ex rel. Todd A. “Tadeo” Durden, County Attorney
Original Mandamus Proceeding 1
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice
Delivered and Filed: February 12, 2020
PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DENIED
On January 27, 2020, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus. Mandamus is an
extraordinary remedy, available only when the relator can show (1) the trial court clearly abused
its discretion or violated a duty imposed by law; and (2) there is no adequate remedy by way of
appeal. Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 839-40 (Tex. 1992) (orig. proceeding). After
considering the petition and the record, this court concludes relator did not satisfy his burden and,
therefore, is not entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is
denied. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
