IN THE
                          TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

                                 No. 10-11-00013-CR

                         IN RE LOYD TOM LOGAN, JR.

                                 Original Proceeding

                         MEMORANDUM O P I N I O N

       Loyd Tom Logan, Jr., a prison inmate, seeks a writ of mandamus to compel the

Honorable Cindy Polley, County Clerk of Ellis County, to file Logan’s “Motion for

Nunc Pro Tunc.”       There are numerous procedural problems with this petition

including, but not limited to, the lack of 1) a certified or sworn copy of the pleading

Logan attempted to file with the County Court at Law judge with a verified motion

explaining that the clerk refused to accept the pleading and 2) a certified or sworn copy

of a mandamus that Logan contends the trial court denied. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k).

       However, we use Rule 2 to look past these and the other deficiencies and deny

Logan’s petition. TEX. R. APP. P. 2.
