PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED
On October 28, 2025, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus challenging proceedings
in Bexar County Justice Court. We lack jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus against a justice
of the peace or justice court unless it is necessary to preserve our jurisdiction. See TEX. GOV’T
CODE § 22.221 (writ power of the courts of appeals); see also In re Ramirez, No. 04-22-00469-
CV, 2022 WL 3908846, at *1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio Aug. 31, 2022, orig. proceeding) (courts
of appeal lack jurisdiction to consider matters arising directly from justice court). Accordingly,
relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is DISMISSED.
