                           WRIT OF MANDAMUS
                              315th District Court
                             Harris County, Texas
                          Trial Court Cause No. 86707

                         MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On Wednesday, July 5, 2023, relator Z.Q. filed a petition for writ of
mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221; see also Tex. R.
App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Leah
Shapiro, presiding judge of the 315th District Court of Harris County (1) to rule on
a “motion for a merits ruling on an application for writ of habeas corpus”; and (2)
to rule on a motion for a hearing “in order to fully develop the facts and arguments
necessary to make a ruling on the constitutional claims.”

      Relator has not established that he is entitled to mandamus relief.
Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus.

                                      PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Wise, Poissant, and Wilson.
