                          Original Proceeding

                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Relator Thomas Wayne Parker filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus,

in which he alleges that the trial court has refused to rule on his motion to award him

the proper amount of pre-sentence jail-time credits. Parker has not demonstrated that

he is clearly entitled to mandamus relief from this Court. See State ex rel. Hill v.

Court of Appeals for Fifth Dist., 34 S.W.3d 924, 927 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001)

(holding that to establish entitlement to a writ of mandamus, a relator must establish

that the trial court failed to perform a ministerial duty and that relator has no other

                                          1
adequate legal remedy). Accordingly, we deny relief on the petition for writ of

mandamus.

      PETITION DENIED.
