MEMORANDUM OPINION
Lamarvin Gross seeks a writ of mandamus compelling the trial court to rule on his motion to represent himself in the underlying proceeding and his motion for a free "transcript and records." The party seeking mandamus relief has the burden to provide a record sufficient to establish his entitlement to such relief. Walker v. Packer , 827 S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992). To that end, the relator in a mandamus proceeding must file along with his petition a certified or sworn copy of every document that is material to his claim for relief and that was filed in any underlying proceeding. TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(j)(1)(A), 52.7(a)(1). Here, Gross did not provide copies of any documents that are material to his claim for relief. Consequently, he has failed to meet his burden to provide a record sufficient to establish his entitlement to relief. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is denied .
