in Re Alula F. Hagos ( 2019 )

Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-19-00765-CR
IN RE Alula F. HAGOS
Original Mandamus Proceeding 1
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice
Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
Delivered and Filed: November 13, 2019
PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DENIED
On October 29, 2019, relator filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus requesting
immediate release from confinement. Relator is represented by trial counsel below; therefore,
relator is not entitled to hybrid representation. Patrick v. State, 906 S.W.2d 481, 498 (Tex. Crim.
App. 1995). The absence of a right to hybrid representation means relator’s pro se mandamus
petition will be treated as presenting nothing for this court’s review. See id.; see also Gray v.
Shipley, 877 S.W.2d 806, 806 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1994, orig. proceeding).
Accordingly, relator’s pro se petition for writ of mandamus is denied. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
