IN RE DAVID WAYNE BROOKS, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF MANDAMUS

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

On April 2, 2004, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court.  See Tex. Gov=t. Code Ann. ' 22.221 (Vernon Supp. 2003); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  Relator asks that we compel the trial court to provide him with his trial court record.

As the party seeking relief, relator had the burden of providing this Court with a sufficient record to establish his right to mandamus relief.  Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992).  Relator has not provided this court with documentation showing he has requested the record and the trial court denied the request.  Thus, relator has not provided us with a record upon which he can establish his right to mandamus relief.  Id.  

We deny relator=s petition for writ of mandamus.

PER CURIAM

Petition Denied and Memorandum Opinion filed April 22, 2004.

Panel consists of Justices Fowler, Edelman, and Seymore.
