IN RE Christopher T. BRADY Original Mandamus Proceeding 1 PER CURIAM

Sitting: Marialyn Barnard, Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice

Delivered and Filed: July 18, 2018 PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DENIED On July 5, 2018, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in which it appears relator is asserting he has been detained in jail in violation of Texas Code of Criminal Procedure article 17.151 (“Release because of delay”). Relator asks that he be released from confinement. Relator is represented by court-appointed trial counsel below; therefore, his pro se mandamus petition presents nothing for this court’s review because a criminal defendant is not entitled to hybrid representation. See Patrick v. State, 906 S.W.2d 481, 498 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995). Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
