COURT OF APPEALS SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH NO. 2-10-150-CV IN RE GERALD ANTHONY WRIGHT RELATOR ------------ ORIGINAL PROCEEDING ------------ MEMORANDUM OPINION (footnote: 1) ------------ The court has considered relator’s petition for writ of mandamus and is of the opinion that relief should be denied. This court does not have jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus against either of the respondents except to protect our own jurisdiction. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221(b) (Vernon 2004); In re Dunn , 120 S.W.3d 913, 913 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 2003, orig. proceeding); see also In re Stickhausen , 994 S.W.2d 936, 936 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1999, orig. proceeding). This court’s jurisdiction is not at issue in this case. Accordingly, relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is denied.
