in Re: Teresa Ward Cooper

DENY and Opinion Filed September 9, 2022
In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-22-00884-CV
IN RE TERESA WARD COOPER, Relator
Original Proceeding from the 219th Judicial District Court
Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 219-00556-2021
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Molberg, Pedersen, III, and Garcia
Opinion by Justice Molberg
Before the Court is relator’s September 8, 2022 Petition for Writ of
Mandamus where she requests (1) a declaration that § 12.005 of the Texas Civil
Practice and Remedies Code as applied to her is unconstitutional and (2) that District
Clerk Lynne Finley and Court Reporter Robyn Rodriguez be compelled to prepare,
certify, and file their clerk’s and reporter’s records in appeal No. 05-22-00632-CV
without any fee, cost, charge, or expense against relator. Also before the Court is
relator’s September 8, 2022 Emergency Motion to Stay.
The Court has considered relator’s petition for writ of mandamus and record,
and we conclude relator has not demonstrated entitlement to mandamus relief.
Accordingly, we deny the petition. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). We also deny
relator’s Emergency Motion to Stay as moot.
