MCPHERSON, Relator ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS MEMORANDUM OPINION On May 21, 2010, Relator, Brian K. McPherson, filed two petitions for writ of mandamus in this Court. See Tex. Gov t Code Ann §22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.1. This Court s mandamus jurisdiction is governed by Section 22.221 of the Texas Government Code. Section 22.221 expressly limits the mandamus jurisdiction of the courts of appeals to: (1) writs against a district court judge or county court judge in the court of appeals district, and (2) all writs necessary to enforce the court of appeals jurisdiction. Tex. Gov t Code Ann. § 22.221. Because the petitions for writ of mandamus are directed toward a district court outside of this court s district and it is not necessary to enforce this court s jurisdiction, we have no jurisdiction. See Tex. Gov t Code Ann. § 22.221(b)(1). Accordingly, the petitions for writ of mandamus are ordered dismissed. PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Brown, Sullivan, and Christopher. 2
