On Petition for Writ of Mandamus
__________________________________________________________________
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Ya ez, Rodriguez and Garza
Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion (1)

Relator, Chris Garner, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in the above cause on December 11, 2006. An amicus curie brief was received on January 8, 2007, from the office of the Attorney General of Texas on behalf of respondent, the Honorable Kemper Stephen Williams. The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus and the amicus curie brief, is of the opinion that relator has not shown himself entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly, relator's petition for writ of mandamus is denied. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
