IN RE Phillip WEST
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Original Mandamus Proceeding PER CURIAM Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Beth Watkins, Justice PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DENIED
This proceeding arises out of Cause No. 2018CR13174, styled The State of Texas v. Phillip West, pending in the 399th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas, the Honorable Frank J. Castro presiding.
Relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in which he asserts the trial court has failed to rule on several motions in his underlying criminal case. Relator is represented by trial counsel below; therefore, he 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 petition for writ of mandamus is denied. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
