Opinion

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

No. 10-14-00365-CR

IN RE PHOUTHASACK PHETVONGKHAM

Original Proceeding

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator seeks mandamus relief against the Honorable Kristin Guiney, Judge of

the 179th District Court of Harris County. The Tenth Court of Appeals does not have

territorial jurisdiction of an original proceeding arising out of Harris County, which is

within the First and Fourteenth Judicial Districts, nor does it have jurisdiction over a

Harris County district judge. See TEX. GOV’T. CODE ANN. § 22.201(b, k, o) (West Supp.

2014); § 22.221(b)(1) (West 2004). Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is

dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
