IN RE MARCUS JACQUOT, Relator


ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS
245th District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2013-47425

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On January 12, 2021, relator Marcus Jacquot filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Tristan Longino, presiding judge of the 245th District Court of Harris County, to vacate his October 29, 2020 temporary orders.

On February 2, 2021, the court issued an order advising relator that his petition does not comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure and providing 10 days' notice that the court would dismiss the petition if the deficiencies were not cured. See In re Jacquot, No. 14-21-00022-CV (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] Feb. 2, 2021, order). Specifically, we explained to relator that his petition did not include: (1) a certified or sworn copy of any order complained of or any other documents showing the matter complained of; (2) a certified or sworn copy of every document that is material to the relator's claim for relief and that was filed in any underlying proceeding; or (3) an authenticated transcript of any relevant testimony from any underlying proceeding, including exhibits offered into evidence, or a statement that no testimony was adduced in connection with the matter complained of. Id. (citing Tex. R. App. P. 52.3(k)(1)(A)), 52.7(a)(1), 52.7(a)(2)).

On February 12, 2021, in response to the court's order, relator filed an amended petition. Relator, however, has not cured all deficiencies. Relator's amended petition does not include an authenticated transcript of any relevant testimony from any underlying proceeding, including exhibits offered into evidence, or a statement that no testimony was adduced in connection with the matter complained of. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.7(a)(2).

Because relator's petition and amended petition for writ of mandamus do not comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, they are dismissed.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Bourliot, Zimmerer, and Spain.
