IN RE DAVID EARL STANLEY
Original Proceeding 258th District Court of Polk County, Texas
Trial Cause No. CIV 27223
MEMORANDUM OPINION
David Earl Stanley seeks a writ of mandamus directing the trial court to rule on three motions filed by Stanley in an asset forfeiture case. Stanley complains that no action has been taken by the trial court on the motion to dismiss for want of prosecution that Stanley filed on September 13, 2015, the motion for summary judgment that Stanley filed on October 26, 2015, or the motion to supplement his motion for summary judgment that Stanley filed on November 5, 2015. The relator has not shown that the trial court delayed its disposition of his pre-trial motions for an unreasonable length of time. See In re Bates, 65 S.W.3d 133, 134-35 (Tex. App.—Amarillo 2001, orig. proceeding) (discussing factors to consider in evaluating whether the claims that the trial court failed to act within a reasonable time). We deny the petition.
PETITION DENIED.
