IN RE TRACY NIXON, Relator


Original Proceeding from the 162nd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas

Before Justices Myers, Nowell, and Goldstein

MEMORANDUM OPINION

ERIN A. NOWELL, JUSTICE

Relator's August 11, 2022 petition for writ of mandamus challenges the administrative law judge's denial of permission for relator, having previously been identified as a vexatious litigant, to file a petition in the trial court. Relator also filed a motion asking this Court to obtain records from the clerk's office pertaining to her claim.

Based on our review of the petition, attached document, and motion, we conclude that relator has failed to comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 52 in numerous ways. See Tex. R. App. P. 52. For example, relator failed to provide a certified or sworn copy of every document that is material to the relator's claim for relief. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.7(a). Relator's motion acknowledges that she is able to obtain copies of the relevant documents herself.

Because relator has failed to comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 52 and has failed to provide an adequate record for our review, we deny the petition. See In re Butler, 270 S.W.3d 757, 759 (Tex. App.-Dallas 2008, orig. proceeding). We likewise deny relator's motion.
