MEMORANDUM OPINION


On August 7, 2009, relator, Andrew Wayne Parrott, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Denise Collins, presiding judge of the 208th District Court of Harris County, to rule on his pro se motion to dismiss court appointed attorney and appoint new counsel, motion to reduce bail, motion in limine, motion for discovery and inspection of evidence, motion to suppress illegally seized evidence, and motion for a speedy trial. Relator's petition does not comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See Tex. R. App. P. 20.1 (requiring affidavit of indigence to proceed in court of appeals without advance payment of costs); Tex. R. App. P. 52.3(j) (requiring certification that every factual statement in petition is supported by competent evidence in appendix or record); Tex. R. App. P. 52.7(a)(1) (requiring relator to file certified or sworn copy of every document that is material to his claim for relief). Relator has not established his entitlement to the extraordinary relief of a writ of mandamus. Accordingly, we deny relator's petition for writ of mandamus.
