Relator. AN ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
§ IN MANDAMUS

§
MEMORANDUM OPINION ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
Relator, Eric Flores, seeks a writ of mandamus to compel the Honorable Mike Herrera,
Judge of the 383rd Judicial District Court reset a modification hearing and appoint an attorney to
represent him in the underlying child support and custody modification suit. Mandamus will lie
only to correct a clear abuse of discretion. Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 839-40 (Tex.
1992)(orig. proceeding). Additionally, there must be no other adequate remedy at law. Id. at
840. Based on the petition and record before us, Mr. Flores has failed to demonstrate he is
entitled to mandamus relief. See TEX .R.APP .P. 52.8.
