IN RE:  FERNANDO GARCIA

   ________________________________________________________________

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus

__________________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Rodriguez, Garza, and Benavides

Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion (1)

	Relator, Fernando Garcia, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in the above
cause on January 10, 2007, in which he alleges that respondent, the Presiding Judge
of the 93rd Judicial District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas, abused his discretion by
failing to enforce an order issued on July 7, 2006, by the Texas Court of Criminal
Appeals, ordering respondent to allow relator an out-of time appeal.  Reviewing this
Court's record sua sponte, relator's notice of appeal was filed on September 1, 2006,
and appellant's brief is due to be filed on January 27, 2007, by appointed counsel,
Oscar Rene Flores.  The Court, therefore, is of the opinion that relator's petition is now
moot.  Accordingly, relator's petition for writ of mandamus is denied as moot.  See
Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
