IN RE Clarence MCFARLIN Jr.

Original Proceeding 1

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Adrian A. Spears II, Justice
H. Todd McCray, Justice
Velia J. Meza, Justice

Delivered and Filed: October 29, 2025

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DENIED

On October 13, 2025, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus. Relator did not request

a stay of proceedings in the underlying matter but does challenge the legitimacy of a competency

jury trial scheduled for October 15, 2025. Relator’s petition indicates that he has not attempted

service of the petition for writ of mandamus on any interested parties. After considering the petition

and the record, this court concludes that relator is not entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly,

the petition for writ of mandamus is denied. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
