Opinion

No. 05-06-01516-CV

Opinion issued November 14, 2006.

Original Proceeding from the 298th Judicial District Court, Dallas County, Texas, Trial Court Cause No. 06-10557.

Writ of Mandamus Denied.

Before Justices MORRIS, RICHTER, and MAZZANT.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


Relators contend the trial court acted without legal authority to order an election for the position of head priest for a church with a hierarchical form of church government. Relators seek mandamus relief to direct the trial court to rescind its order for the election. Relators' petition does not include a certified or sworn copy of every document material to the relators' claim for relief. See Tex.R.App.P. 52.7(a)(1). Additionally, relators have filed a First Supplement to Petition for Writ of Mandamus, which also does not contain a proper record. Id. Therefore, based on the record before us, we conclude relators have not shown they are entitled to the relief requested. See Tex.R.App.P. 52.8(a). Accordingly, we DENY relators' petition for writ of mandamus.
