IN RE Andrew L. GOSS
Original Mandamus Proceeding 1
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
Delivered and Filed: July 26, 2017
PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
On July 10, 2017, Relator filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus seeking a mandamus
directed against the Texas State Attorney General. By statute, this court has authority to issue a
writ of mandamus against “a judge of a district or county court in the court of appeals district” and
other writs as necessary to enforce our appellate jurisdiction. See TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. § 22.221
(West 2004). This court does not have jurisdiction to grant the requested relief. Accordingly,
Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
PER CURIAM
1
This proceeding arises out of Cause No. 2015CI02273, styled Andrew Goss v. Shakia Goss, pending in the 45th
Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas.
