IN RE REUBEN ANTONIO HERNANDEZ, Relator

Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator, Reuben Antonio Hernandez, incarcerated and proceeding pro se, filed

a petition for a writ of mandamus in each of his underlying trial court causes,

asserting that the trial court had violated its ministerial duty to rule on a “substantive

habeas application,” among other alleged errors. Relator’s petition requested that

this Court “[d]ismiss all pending charges against [relator] with prejudice, on grounds

of egregious and irremediable prejudice resulting from repeated violations of
constitutional rights, judicial bias, willful State misconduct, and late disclosure of

exculpatory evidence.”1

Our review of Hernandez’s mandamus petition reflects that he has failed to

establish that he is entitled to mandamus relief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k), 52.7,

52.8; see also Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992). Accordingly,

we deny Hernandez’s petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).

We dismiss any pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Guerra, Gunn, and Dokupil.

Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
