In Re Sheldon T. Brown v. the State of Texas

Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-25-00274-CV

In re Sheldon T. Brown

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM BELL COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On April 22, 2025, we received relator’s motion for leave to file “the

accompanying original petition for writ of mandamus.” Attached to the motion were

miscellaneous documents related to a criminal matter in Bell County, Texas, but nothing that

could be described as a petition for writ of mandamus. By letter dated April 29, 2025, the clerk

of this Court notified relator that leave is not required to file a petition for writ of mandamus, and

directed relator to file a petition on or before May 29, 2025. That date has passed, and relator

has not filed a petition. Accordingly, relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for

want of prosecution.
