Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-21-00232-CR IN RE Aric LUCAS, Relator Original Proceeding 1 PER CURIAM Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice Delivered and Filed: June 16, 2021 PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DENIED Relator has filed a petition for writ of mandamus. We may issue writs of mandamus when “agreeable to the principles of law regulating those writs.” TEX. GOV’T CODE § 22.221(b). For mandamus, a relator has the burden to file a petition and record showing the trial court abused its discretion and that no adequate appellate remedy exists. In re State ex rel. Ogg, 618 S.W.3d 361, 363 (Tex. Crim. App. 2021) (orig. proceeding). According to the trial court docket, relator is represented by counsel. Because relator is not entitled to hybrid representation, his trial court filings present nothing for review, and we cannot say the respondent trial judge clearly abused his discretion by not acting on those motions. See In re Walker, No. 04-20-00266-CR, 2020 WL 3547979, at *1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio July 1, 2020, no pet.) (mem. op., not designated for This proceeding arises out of Cause No. 2019CR4717 pending in the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas, the Honorable Jefferson Moore presiding. 1 04-21-00232-CR publication). Having reviewed the petition and documents included in the appendix, we conclude relator has not satisfied the requirements for issuing writs of mandamus. Accordingly, we deny the petition. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). PER CURIAM DO NOT PUBLISH -2-
