In The

Court of Appeals For The

First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-24-00888-CR ——————————— IN RE DOROTHY ANN HUNT, Relator

Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator, Dorothy Ann Hunt, proceeding pro se, filed a petition for a writ of

mandamus asserting that on September 19, 2024, she filed a “motion for hearing on

[p]etition for [w]rit of [h]abeas [c]orpus and [p]raecipe to [the] Harris County

Criminal Courts at Law,” on behalf of her son, Sam Autry Fletcher, who is currently

incarcerated in connection with his conviction for the felony offense of aggravated robbery.1 Hunt requests that this Court “issue a [w]rit of [m]andamus to [the 183rd

District Court of Harris County] to hear the attached [p]etition and [p]raecipe.”

Our review of Hunt’s mandamus petition reflects that she has failed to

establish that she is entitled to mandamus relief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3, 52.7, 52.8;

see also Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992). Accordingly, we deny

Hunt’s petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). We dismiss any

pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM
