MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator Luis Ray Jaramillo, Jr. has filed a pro se petition for a writ of mandamus, complaining of the trial court's failure to rule on various documents filed in two of his pending criminal cases. Relator acknowledges he is represented by trial counsel. We conclude any original proceeding on the issue presented should be presented by relator's trial counsel. Relator is not entitled to hybrid representation. See 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 mandamus petition is denied.
