Alvarez, Justice Irene Rios, Justice Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice Delivered and Filed: October 16, 2019 PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION On October 2, 2019, relator filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus in which relator seeks to compel the Board of Pardons and Paroles to annul or vacate its September 10, 2019 “denial” order. This court’s mandamus jurisdiction does not extend to the Board of Pardons and Paroles. See TEX. GOV’T CODE § 22.221(a), (b). Therefore, we dismiss his petition for want of jurisdiction. Relator also filed a “Request for Publication,” asking us to publish this opinion. We deny the request. PER CURIAM Do not publish 1 This proceeding arises from a parole panel decision by the State of Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles.
