S In the Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-24-00765-CV

IN RE KRISTOPHER G. GUILLAUME, Relator

Original Proceeding from the County Court at Law No. 2 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. CC-24-00774-B

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Molberg, Carlyle, and Breedlove Opinion by Justice Carlyle Before the Court is relator’s June 28, 2024 amended petition for writ of

mandamus. Relator, who is proceeding pro se, challenges a judgment in a forcible

entry and detainer suit. Relator also requests an immediate stay of all trial court

proceedings.

Relator’s amended petition does not comply with numerous Texas Rules of

Appellate Procedure. See, e.g., TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(a), (d), (g), (h), (j), (k)(1)(A);

TEX. R. APP. P. 52.7(a). Thus, relator’s amended petition does not meet the

requirements of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure for consideration of

mandamus relief. See In re Terrace Heights Owner’s Ass’n, Inc., No. 05-24-00538- CV, 2024 WL 2103969, at *1 (Tex. App.—Dallas May 10, 2024, orig. proceeding)

(mem. op.) (denying mandamus relief based on relator’s failure to comply with

several Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure).

Accordingly, we deny relator’s amended petition. We also deny as moot

relator’s request for a stay.
