In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals NO. 14-22-00685-CV IN RE WILLIAM DEXTER LUCAS, Relator ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS County Court at Law No. 4 Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 14-CCV-053073 MEMORANDUM OPINION On September 23, 2022, relator William Dexter Lucas filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Toni Wallace, presiding judge of County Court at Law No. 4 of Fort Bend County, to vacate her June 15, 2022 order denying relator’s motion to dismiss real parties in interest’s claims for want of prosecution and enter an order dismissing their claims with prejudice. Relator has not established that he is entitled to mandamus relief. Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. We also deny relator’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis as moot. PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Wise, Jewell, and Poissant. 2
