MOTION FOR EN BANC RECONSIDERATION DENIED

On October 28, 2025, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus challenging proceedings

in Bexar County Justice Court. We dismissed the petition because we lack jurisdiction to issue a

writ of mandamus against a justice of the peace or justice court unless it is necessary to preserve

our jurisdiction. Relator filed a timely motion for rehearing on November 12, 2025, which we

denied. Relator has since filed a motion for en banc reconsideration. After considering relator’s

arguments, the motion is DENIED.
