PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS DENIED

           On January 31, 2014, relator Guadalupe Torres filed an original pro se habeas corpus

proceeding. Relator alleges that he has been illegally confined to county jail after being held in

contempt for failure to pay previously ordered child support. Relator provides numerous grounds

upon which he believes he is entitled to habeas corpus relief and seeks to be released from custody.

           However, it is relator’s burden to provide this court with a record sufficient to establish his

right to habeas corpus relief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k)(1)(D) (if a writ of habeas corpus is sought,

relator must include in the appendix proof that the relator is being restrained); TEX. R. APP. P.

52.7(a)(1)-(2) (a relator must file with the petition: (1) “a certified or sworn copy of every

document that is material to the relator’s claim for relief and that was filed in any underlying

 This proceeding arises out of Cause No. 2008EM504721, styled In the Interest of S.I.R., a Child, pending in the 45th
Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas, the Honorable Jim Rausch presiding.

proceeding;” and (2) “a properly authenticated transcript of any relevant testimony from any

underlying proceeding”); Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992) (orig. proceeding).

Relator has failed to provide us with a record to support his claims such as the order complained

of, proof of restraint, or the reporter’s record from the hearing. Accordingly, relator’s petition for

writ of habeas corpus is denied.
