                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION

       Relator, Reginald A. Noble, a Texas prison inmate, has filed a petition for writ of

mandamus against Robert H. Rogers, who is not a district or county judge in this Court’s district.

A court of appeals has jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus against certain judges within our

geographic district. TEX.GOV’T CODE ANN. § 22.221(b)(West 2004). It also has authority to

issue a writ of mandamus if it is necessary to enforce the court of appeals’ jurisdiction. Id. §

22.221(a). Relator does not have any appeals pending before this Court. We do not have

jurisdiction to grant mandamus relief against Rogers. Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ

of mandamus.
