Original Proceeding

457th District Court of Montgomery County, Texas Trial Cause No. 26-04-06331

__________________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator Joshua Crampton filed a petition for a writ of mandamus to compel the trial court to vacate an Order Granting Motion to Consolidate and to address Crampton’s Motion for Default Judgment in one of the cases. We notified Crampton of defects in the petition, and provided an extension of time until August 3, 2026, to provide Crampton with an opportunity to file a corrected petition. To date, we have not received a petition that corrects the defects noted in the clerk’s notice.

After having been provided with an opportunity to file a proper mandamus petition, Relator has not demonstrated his entitlement to mandamus relief.

2

Accordingly, we deny the petition for a writ of mandamus without prejudice. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).

PETITION DENIED.
