IN RE TROY CONWAY, Relator
Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator, Troy Conway, has filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus, seeking to compel the respondent, his former criminal defense counsel, to turn over relator's case file from his trial. We do not have jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus directed at relator's former counsel because the requested writ neither is against a judge nor is necessary to enforce our appellate jurisdiction. See TEX. GOV'T CODE ANN. §§ 22.221(a), (b) (West 2004).
Relator identifies the respondent as Ron Hayes, attorney at law. The underlying case is The State of Texas v. Troy Conway, Cause No. 1255787, from the 263rd District Court of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Jim Wallace presiding.
Accordingly, relator's petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Jennings and Keyes. Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
