Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-26-00425-CV

In re William Henry Krieg

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM TRAVIS COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Krieg, who is acting pro se and an inmate in the Texas Department of Criminal

Justice, seeks mandamus relief to require the district court to issue findings of fact and

conclusions of law concerning an order of dismissal that he represents the trial court signed on

December 30, 2025.

Even if mandamus relief is available to correct a trial court’s failure to issue

findings of fact and conclusions of law, relator has not established his entitlement to mandamus

relief. Based on the record provided, the trial court was not required to issue findings of fact and

conclusions of law because relator did not request them timely. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 296

(requiring party to file request for findings of fact and conclusions of law within 20 days after

judgment is signed), 297 (requiring court to file findings of fact and conclusions of law “after a

timely request is filed”). Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See Tex. R.

App. P. 52.8(a).
