Mandamus challenging the justice court’s “judgment for possession against [him] .

mischaracterized [him] as a tenant.” Relator argues he “is entitled to mandamus and prohibition because the [j]ustice [c]ourt [l]ack[ed] jurisdiction to determine [a] title

dispute[] . . . .”1

We deny the Petition for Writ of Mandamus.2 TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). Any

pending motions are dismissed as moot.
