MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator Marvin Dean Goodson filed these original proceedings requesting that this Court dismiss all charges against him because of the alleged delay of the trial court and ineffective assistance of counsel. We deny the writs.
A party seeking mandamus relief must generally bring forward all that is necessary to establish the claim for relief. See Tex.R.App.P. 52. This includes providing an adequate record to substantiate the allegations contained in the petition for mandamus. Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992). Without a sufficient record, a party seeking mandamus relief has not proved any entitlement to the writ. Id. Relator's motion does not comply with rules 52.3 and 52.7 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. Therefore, we are unable to determine that he is entitled to relief. Accordingly, the petitions for writ of mandamus are denied.
