NO. 12-17-00232-CV IN THE COURT OF APPEALS TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT TYLER, TEXAS IN RE: § R.C.H., A CHILD, § RELATOR § ORIGINAL PROCEEDING MEMORANDUM OPINION PER CURIAM Mia Baughman, Relator, filed this original proceeding in which she complains of the trial court’s denial of her motion to transfer venue. We deny the petition. On July 28, 2017, this Court notified Relator that the petition for writ of mandamus failed to comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 52.7(a)(2). On August 8, we again notified Relator of the petition’s failure to comply with Rule 52.7(a)(2), and further notified Relator that the petition would be referred to the Court for dismissal, unless the required record was filed on or before August 15. The time for complying with this Court’s notice has passed, and Relator has neither filed a record in compliance with Rule 52.7(a)(2) or otherwise responded to this Court’s notice. A relator must file, with the petition, “a properly authenticated transcript of any relevant testimony from any underlying proceeding, including any exhibits offered in evidence, or a statement that no testimony was adduced in connection with the matter complained.” TEX. R. APP. P. 52.7(a)(2); see TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k). In this case, Relator failed to provide the record required by Rule 52.7(a)(2); thus, we are unable to determine that Relator is entitled to mandamus relief. See In re Carrea, No. 12-16-00294-CV, 2016 WL 6876500 (Tex. App.—Tyler Nov. 22, 2016, orig. proceeding) (mem. op.). For this reason, we deny Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. Opinion delivered August 31, 2017. Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.
