Opinion
TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-22-00449-CV
In re Jeffery Marx
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM BURNET COUNTY
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator Jeffery Marx has filed a document, which we treat as a petition for writ of
mandamus based on the substance of his filing, complaining that the Burnet County district clerk
has failed to file certain documents. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a); see also Surgitek,
Bristol-Myers Corp. v. Abel, 997 S.W.2d 598, 601 (Tex. 1999). As an intermediate appellate
court, this Court has no jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus against a district clerk unless
necessary to enforce our jurisdiction, see Tex. Gov’t Code § 22.221(a); In re Washington,
7 S.W.3d 181, 182 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1999, orig. proceeding), and our jurisdiction
is not implicated here. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for want
of jurisdiction. __________________________________________ Edward Smith, Justice
