First, the applicable rule required Valenzuela to attach a certified or sworn copy of the order or any other document showing the matter complained of.  
Tex. R. App. Proc.

Second, the petition must also contain a statement of the case, a statement of jurisdiction, a statement of facts, and argument containing citation to authority and to the record or appendix.  
Id
. at Rule 52.3.  These too were omitted from the petition.
