IN RE CRAIG PORTER, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS 263rd District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1374093

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On December 23, 2014, relator Craig Porter filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov’t Code § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Jim Wallace, presiding judge of the 263rd District Court of Harris County, to set bail in the underlying proceedings. To be entitled to mandamus relief, a relator is required to file “a certified or sworn copy of any . . . document showing the matter complained of,” Tex. R. App. P. 52.3(k)(1)(A), and “a certified or sworn copy of every document that is material to the relator’s claim for relief and that was filed in any underlying proceeding,” Tex. R. App. P. 52.7(a)(1). Relator, however, has not provided this court any documentation in support of his mandamus petition.

Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus.
