                        IN RE ADRIAN DAVID HEATH

                         Original Proceeding
_________________________________________________________________ _

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Relator Adrian David Heath filed a petition for writ of mandamus with this

Court. Heath complains that the presiding judge of the administrative region

denied his motion to recuse the trial judge.

      On the record before us, we conclude that we lack mandamus authority over

the presiding judge’s denial of the motion to recuse the trial judge. See Tex. Gov’t

Code Ann. § 22.221 (West 2004); In re ES Energy Solutions, LP, No. 05-10-

01158-CV, 2010 WL 3720219, at *1 (Tex. App.—Dallas Sept. 24, 2010, orig.

proceeding) (mem. op.). Accordingly, we dismiss Heath’s petition for writ of

mandamus.

      PETITION DISMISSED.
