IN RE JUAN RIVERA ROMAN, Relator


Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus


MEMORANDUM OPINION

On January 29, 2014, the relator, Juan Rivera Roman, filed two petitions for writ of mandamus, seeking to compel the trial court to rule on relator's motion related to DNA testing.

Relator also filed motions for leave to file his petitions for writ of mandamus. Relator's motions for leave are dismissed. The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure no longer require the relator to file a motion for leave to file an original proceeding. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52 & cmt.

The underlying cases are State v. Juan Rivera Roman, No. 320105, in the 209th District Court of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Michael T. McSpadden presiding and State v. Juan Rivera Roman, No. 1107807, in the 176th District Court of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Lisa Burkhalter presiding.

We deny the petition for writ of mandamus.

Relator's petition for writ of mandamus is procedurally defective. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.5, 52.2, 52.3, 52.7.
