In re Jaime Luevano


ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM CORYELL COUNTY

Before Chief Justice Byrne, Justices Triana and Kelly

MEMORANDUM OPINION

DARLENE BYRNE, CHIEF JUSTICE

Relator Jaime Luevano has filed a petition for writ of mandamus directed at Texas Governor Greg Abbott. However, we have no jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus against the governor unless necessary to enforce our jurisdiction, which is not implicated here. See Tex. Gov't Code § 22.221(b); see also In re Luevano, No. 03-15-00014-CV, 2015 WL 267889, at *1 (Tex. App.-Austin Jan. 14, 2015, no pet.).

The petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
