MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator, Gerald Hayes, has filed a petition for writ of mandamus that requests this Court order the respondent to rule on pro se motions filed in trial court cause number 119872. We deny the petition for writ of mandamus. Relator is represented on his appeal of cause number 119872, by court-appointed counsel. Relator is not entitled to hybrid representation. Gray v. Shipley, 877 S.W.2d 806 (Tex. App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 1994, orig. proceeding); Rudd v. State, 616 S.W.2d 623, 625 (Tex. Crim. App. 1981). Therefore, the petition for writ of mandamus is denied.
Relator names as respondent, the Honorable Mark Ellis, Presiding Judge of the 351st District Court of Harris County, Texas. Relator has not served respondent with a copy of the petition for writ of mandamus.
Harris County Justice Information System records reflect that relator Hayes is represented on his appeal of trial court cause number 119872 by appointed counsel, Robert Scott Ramsey. The appeal of trial court cause number 119872 is pending in this Court and is assigned appellate case number 01-09-00437-CR.
