IN RE EMMETT JACKSON, Relator
Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator, Emmett Jackson, has filed two pro se petitions for writ of mandamus (1)
complaining that the trial court has not acted on his pro se motions filed in trial court
cause numbers 1180481 and 1180482. (2) We deny the petitions.
Relator's petitions do not meet the requirements of the Texas Rules of
Appellate Procedure because they do not certify that a copy was served on respondent
and do not contain a table of contents, index of authorities, or an appendix. (3) See Tex.
R. App. P. 9.5, 52.3(b) (c ) (j). Moreover, relator is not entitled to hybrid
representation. See Patrick v. State , 906 S.W.2d 481, 498 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995);
Gray v. Shipley , 877 S.W. 2d 806 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 1994, orig.
proceeding).
The petitions for writ of mandamus are denied .
It is so ORDERED .
