IN RE EDWARD R. NEWSOME, Relator
 
 

 
ORIGINAL
PROCEEDINGS
WRIT OF MANDAMUS
 

 
M E M O R
A N D U M   O P I N I O N
Relator
Edward R. Newsome has asserted two separate petitions for writ of mandamus
(case numbers 14-08-00342-CV and 14-08-00343-CV) in the papers he filed on
April 24, 2008.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221(b)(Vernon 1988); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  The respondents are listed as AMs. Tucker et. al@ (case number 14-08-00342-CV) and ATrial Counsel Paul Mewis et. al@ (case number 14-08-00343-CV).  We
cannot determine the underlying lawsuit or the identity of the real party in
interest, and relator has not specified from what order(s) he seeks relief.




A court
of appeals has no general writ power over a personBother than a judge of a district or
county courtBunless issuance of the writ is necessary to enforce the court=s jurisdiction in a case already
properly before it.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221 (Vernon 1988).  The petitions
do not identify respondents over whom the court has jurisdiction.  See id.
Accordingly,
we dismiss for want of jurisdiction the petitions in case numbers
14-08-00342-CV and 14-08-00343-CV, and all other requests for relief contained
in those petitions.
