TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

                                      NO. 03-16-00481-CV

                                   In re Herman Lee Kindred

                        ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM BELL COUNTY

                              MEMORANDUM OPINION

                On June 23, 2016, relator Herman Lee Kindred, an inmate proceeding pro se, filed

a petition for writ of mandamus, which this Court denied.1 In the petition, Kindred had asserted that

the County Court at Law No. 2 of Bell County had failed to rule on and forward to this Court an

application for writ of habeas corpus that Kindred claimed to have filed in the court below. This

Court concluded that Kindred had failed to show himself entitled to the extraordinary relief

requested.2

                Kindred has now filed another petition for writ of mandamus, re-urging the same

entitled to mandamus relief. Accordingly, for the reasons explained in our previous opinion and

other opinions rejecting similar claims made by Kindred, we deny the petition for writ of

mandamus.3
