Opinion
IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS
No. 10-24-00022-CV
IN RE MARCUS D'SHUN LEWIS
Original Proceeding
From the County Court at Law Navarro County, Texas Trial Court No. C22-30681-CV
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On January 25, 2024, Marcus D’Shun Lewis filed a “Petition for Writ of
Mandamus for Preparation of Court Reporter’s Records,” requesting that this Court
order the court reporter in the underlying case to provide him with a copy of the
reporter’s record. A court of appeals has no jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus
against a court reporter except to protect or enforce its jurisdiction. See TEX. GOV’T CODE
ANN. § 22.221. We therefore dismiss Lewis’s “Petition for Writ of Mandamus for
Preparation of Court Reporter’s Records” for want of jurisdiction. MATT JOHNSON Justice
Before Chief Justice Gray, Justice Johnson, and Justice Smith Petition dismissed Opinion delivered and filed February 8, 2024 [OT06]
