IN RE KENNETH HILL, Relator
 
 

 
ORIGINAL
PROCEEDING
WRIT
OF MANDAMUS
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M  O
P I N I O N
On April 6, 2006, relator Kenneth Hill filed a petition for
writ of mandamus in this Court,[1]
requesting we order the district clerk of Brazoria County to acknowledge
receipt of and docket a petition filed by relator in that court.  
This Court is empowered to issue writs of mandamus to enforce
its jurisdiction, or against a judge of district or county courts within its
appellate district.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221 (Vernon 2005).  Because there is no indication that the writ
is necessary to enforce our jurisdiction and it is not against a district or
county judge, we do not have the authority to provide relator with the
requested relief.  Accordingly, the
petition for writ of mandamus is ordered dismissed.
