  • Writ of Mandamus Dismissed; Opinion issued April 19, 2013
    S In The
    Court of Appeals
    Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
    No. 05-13-00435-CV
    IN RE PERRY PATTERSON, Relator
    Original Proceeding from the 203rd Judicial District Court
    Dallas County, Texas
    Trial Court Cause No. F08-11133-P
    MEMORANDUM OPINION
    Before Justices FitzGerald, Lang, and Myers
    Opinion by Justice FitzGerald
    Before the Court is relator=s petition for writ of mandamus complaining that neither the
    Court of Criminal Appeals nor this Court has sent him a copy of a petition for discretionary
    review filed by relator’s attorney. The facts and issues are well known to the parties, so we need
    not recount them herein. This Court does not have mandamus jurisdiction over the Court of
    Criminal Appeals.    See TEX. GOV=T CODE ANN. ' 22.221 (West 2004).             Accordingly, we
    DISMISS relator=s petition for a writ of mandamus for want of jurisdiction to the extent it seeks
    relief regarding the Court of Criminal Appeals. To the extent the petition requests a copy of the
    petition for discretionary review from this Court, relator has not shown he is entitled to that
    relief, and we DENY that portion of the petition. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a); Simon v. Levario,
    
    306 S.W.3d 318
    , 320-21 (Tex. Crim. App. 2009) (orig. proceeding).
