In re Carlos Lopez Guzman, Relator

AN ORIGINAL PROCEEDING IN MANDAMUS

M E MO RA N D UM O PI NI O N

Relator, Carlos Lopez Guzman, has filed a petition for writ of mandamus, requesting that

we direct the trial court to (1) disqualify the prosecutor in Guzman’s criminal case and (2) appoint

another attorney to continue the prosecution. Guzman has also filed an emergency motion

requesting that we stay all proceedings in the trial court.

After consideration, the Court has determined that Guzman has not established that he is

entitled to the relief sought. We deny the petition. We dismiss any pending motions as moot.
