TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-19-00004-CV In re Samuel Adkins ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM TRAVIS COUNTY M E M O R AN D U M O P I N I O N Relator Samuel Adkins filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus asking this Court to compel the district court to act on his motion for forensic DNA testing and his motion for appointment of counsel. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 64.01(a-1), (c). After Adkins filed his petition, the district court ruled on both of his motions.
