PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION

           On June 12, 2013, Relator Rowland J. Martin filed a petition for writ of mandamus, seeking

relief with respect to certain decisions of The Law Firm of Linebarger, Goggan, Blair & Sampson.

This court does not have jurisdiction to grant the requested relief. By statute, this court has the

authority to issue a writ of mandamus against “a judge of a district or county court in the court of

appeals district” and other writs as necessary to enforce our appellate jurisdiction. See TEX. GOV’T

CODE ANN. § 22.221(a)-(b) (West 2004). We conclude the writ is not necessary to enforce our

appellate jurisdiction in this instance. Accordingly, relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is

dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

                                                      PER CURIAM
