IN RE: TIMOTHY LEE ROBINSON


Original Mandamus Proceeding


Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Timothy Lee Robinson has filed a petition for writ of mandamus requesting this Court to order an unspecified district court in Titus County to adjudicate that Robinson is entitled to the return of $1,155.00 seized in 2005. Robinson alleges Titus County has only recently initiated forfeiture proceedings—eight years after the seizure.

We take judicial notice that Titus County has two district courts: the 76th Judicial District, the Honorable Danny Woodson presiding, and the 276th Judicial District, the Honorable Robert Rolston presiding.

Robinson's petition is not accompanied by a certified or sworn copy of the motion that is the subject of his complaint, as is required by Rule 52.3 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k)(1)(A). It is the relator's burden to provide this Court with a sufficient record to establish his right to mandamus relief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k)(1)(A), 52.7(a)(1). The record is inadequate to grant mandamus relief.

Accordingly, we deny Robinson's petition for writ of mandamus.

Bailey C. Moseley

Justice
