DENY and Opinion Filed March 25, 2022 In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-22-00100-CV IN RE ELDA TELLE , ELAINE BOSCH, CAITLIN DICKEY AND CHICAGO TITLE OF TEXAS, LLC, Relators Original Proceeding from the 471st Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 471-01185-2021 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Osborne, Partida-Kipness, and Smith Opinion by Justice Smith Before the Court is relators’ March 9, 2022 petition for writ of mandamus. After reviewing relators’ petition, we find that relators have failed to fully comply with Rule 52 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52. Relators failed to certify that relators have reviewed the petition and concluded every factual statement in petition is supported by competent evidence included in the appendix or record, as required by Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure Rule 52.3(j). See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(j). In a footnote within the petition’s statement of facts, relators state an attempt was made “to relate only Page 1 of 2 facts supported by evidence in the record, and not assertions, characterizations, or rhetoric bandied about in pleadings or motion papers in the case.” Neither the statement nor the attempt satisfy the stringent requirements of Rule 52.3(j). Because we conclude the contents of relators’ petition is not certified as required by the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See In re Butler, 270 S.W.3d 757, 759 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2008, orig. proceeding). Such denial is without prejudice to relators’ refiling a petition compliant with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 52. /Craig Smith/ CRAIG SMITH JUSTICE 220100F.P05 Page 2 of 2
