ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
WRIT OF MANDAMUS
248th District Court
Harris County, Texas 
Trial Court Cause No. 1276540

            On October 21, 2010, relator filed a writ of quo warranto in
this court.  See Tex. R. App. P. 52.  Relator complains the Honorable
Joan Campbell, presiding judge of the 248th District Court of Harris County,
Texas, has no choice but to dismiss his case because the court lacks
jurisdiction.
A writ of quo warranto is an extraordinary remedy used to determine
disputed questions about the proper person entitled to hold a public office and
exercise its functions, or to question the existence of a public corporation or
district and its right to act. State ex rel. Angelini v. Hardberger, 932
S.W.2d 489, 490 (Tex.1996).  Relator's petition is wholly unrelated to the
issues for which a writ of quo warranto
is available, and therefore is an improper vehicle for obtaining the relief
sought by relator.
Our writ power is limited to issuing writs of mandamus and
all other writs necessary to enforce our jurisdiction, which does not include a
writ of quo warranto. See Tex.
Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221(a) (Vernon 2004).  Accordingly, we dismiss relator's petition for writ of quo warranto for lack of jurisdiction. Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
