MEMORANDUM OPINION


Relator, David James, has filed in this Court a pro se petition for writ of mandamus asking that we order respondent to rule on pro se motions that he filed to obtain a portion of a reporter's record in cause number 21928. Relator requests that this Court compel the trial court to provide him with a free copy of the reporter's record in case number 21928 in which relator was convicted of the offense of aggravated sexual assault. Relator's conviction in cause number 21928 is on appeal and is pending in this Court. Relator is represented by appointed counsel in the appeal of his conviction. Relator is not entitled to hybrid representation. In re Cooks, No. 06-04-00053-CV, slip op. at 2 (Tex.App.-Texarkana Apr. 29, 2004, orig. proceeding); Gray v.
