No. 05-15-01481-CV
No. 05-15-01482-CV
IN RE DONALD GENE BLANTON, Relator
Original Proceeding from the 86th Judicial District Court
Kaufman County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 23078-86, No. 23592-86
ORDER
Before Justices Lang, Fillmore and Brown
Based on the Court’s opinion of this date, we DISMISS the petition for writ of
mandamus. We DENY as unnecessary relator’s motion for leave to file his application for writ
of mandamus. Because a motion for leave is not required by Rule 52 of the Texas Rules of
Appellate Procedure, we have considered the petition on its merits without first granting leave to
file the petition. We ORDER relator to bear the costs of this original proceeding.
