        COMES NOW pro se petitioner Warren Chester Atwater IV who moves
        this Honorable Appellate Court for a mandamus.                               A motion for an
        out-of-time appeal was fil~d wLth Honorable Judge Tarrance Carter
        in the above said Henderson County, Texas cases.' It appears the
        District Court refuses to make a ruling to either grant or deny
       ·said motion.              Petitioner has no other means of relief and asks
        this10Court for mandamus jurisdiction to be exercised and a ruling
        to be made upon his pending motion.                      The evidence shows that pe-
        titioner's plea of guilty was not voluntarily given and several
        instances of jurisdictional error have also been pointed out.
        (please incorporate by reference all filings to include motion
        for out-of-time appeal, memorandum in support of motiod~ and
        petitioner affadavit of indigence and request for free statement
        of facts)           Also included was a grievance filed while in the Hen-
        derson County, Texas jail showing bad acts and a reply showing
        a deputy lost his job.uitheagrievancet~learly states and peti-

        made aware as was the District Attorney.                           Petitioner also has
        injuries resulting from the last use· of force by said county
        leaving him disfigured and permanently injured.                               see exhibits
        A and B.
        Petitioner requests that mandamus issue to allo~ a ruling made
        on his out-of-ti~e appeal(with appointment of counsel), and
        also that the ruling be ~eviewed by this Appellate Eourt to en-
        sure that the decesion is in line Luith the law qnd all Texas S 1,· ..
        Codes.
