MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator Randall Wayne Weaver has filed a petition for writ of mandamus seeking to compel

the Honorable John Poole, Judge of the 109th District Court of Andrews County, Texas, to

ministerially grant a motion to reconsider an order dismissing Weaver’s divorce proceeding and to

reinstate the same.1

“Mandamus relief is an extraordinary remedy requiring the relator to show that (1) the trial

court clearly abused its discretion and (2) the relator lacks an adequate remedy by appeal.” In re

This is Weaver’s third petition for writ of mandamus, with his previous two being denied because Weaver failed to
provide a certified or sworn copy of the order on which he complained. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.3(k)(1)(A), 52.7(a)(1).
This latest petition does include a file-stamped order of dismissal reflecting it was rendered on May 7, 2025, but signed
on July 10, 2025.
petition, we conclude that Weaver has failed to establish he is entitled to mandamus relief.

Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
