IN RE: DAVID ONNEN

§ ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator David Onnen has filed a "motion" for writ of mandamus seeking an order directing the Clerk of Anderson County to comply with various duties set forth in the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, to notify Relator "of such," and to "comply with all necessary procedures [to] further effect [Relator's] civil action."
We first note that Relator's motion does not comply with rules 52.3 and 52.7 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. Additionally, the motion does not seek to invoke this court's appellate jurisdiction or to protect this court's jurisdiction. Moreover, we do not have authority to issue mandamus directed to the clerk. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221(a), (b) (Vernon Supp. 2003). Accordingly, the writ of mandamus is denied.

James T. Worthen  

Chief Justice

Opinion delivered April 30, 2003.

Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J. and Griffith, J.
