                                Request for Relief

          RelatorjRequest in this Application that this Court Direct Re-
      -spondent to file and Rule on Orignal Petition for Expunction, That
      was Filed August/20/2015.
      Expunctions are a Right, Rather a Honorable Judge Grants or Denies
      the PetitioJ, A Court Clerk has a Duty to File Pleadings so a Pre-
      -siding Judge May Preform his Duty.
      There Should be a Hearing and a Ruling,Rather a Relator is Indigent
      or Not. This County is Abusing it's Authority Denying Access to the
      Courts Presiding Judge.
      If the Orignal Petition to Expunge Record. was Denied, The Next step
      would be The Right To Appeal.

                                        III.
      This Court has Jusisdiction to Consider this Application Pursuant to

                                        page 3
Art.55 of the Texas Constitution and Artical 4.04 of the Code of
Criminal Procedure See Padilla V.McDaniel 122.S.W.3d 805,807(Tex.
Crim.App.2003); Holmes V.Denson 671. S.W.2d 896(Tex.Crim.App.June.
27.1984).

                                  IV.

                          Authorities and Argument

       In Writ of Mandamus have Held that a Trial Court has a Minis-
-terial Duty to [TIMLY] Rule on; Expunction of records. See Heine V.
Texas DPS 92 S.W.3d 642,649(Rex.App.Austin.2002)Pet Denied.The Trial
Court is Required to set a Hearing on a Petition for Expungment.
Individuals who are Incarcerated,Do Not Automatically Loose Their
Access to the Courts, As a Result of their Incarcerated Status.
                     ,-

The Right to Expunction is a Statutory Privilege. TEXAS Code of Crim-
-inal Procedure Art 55.01 Right to Expunction (a) A Person who has
been Placed under a Custodial or NonCustodial Arrest for Commission
of Either A Felony or Misdemeanor is Entitled to have ALL RECORDS
and FILES Relating to the Arrest Expunged If;
(1). The Person is Tried for the offence for which the Person was
        Arrested and is:
(A). Acquitted by the Trial Court.
See, EXHIBIT (A) Judgement Number# 046500.
We The Jurylfind the Defendant, MICHAEL CHRISTOPHER WADE Not Guilty
of Violation Section 31.03 (e)(4)(a) TEXAS Penal Case Theft $1.500 <
$ :'20K as Charged.
There is NoiReason why Relator Cannot Receive A Court Order to Expunge
the Records. That is a Statutory Privilege. Tx.Code.Crim.Proc.55.01
and 55.02.
Once a petition Arives to a Court, The Clerks Duty is to Place on
Dockett Call as of there own Ommission, The Petition was filed,
August/20/2015. Violating the 30 Day Rule for Expunction of Records·
It is the Courts Duty. TEXAS DEPARTMENT of PUBLIC SAFETY V. Deck. 954
S.W 2d.108(Court of appeals of Texas.1997)
                                                     I

Clerks Duty 2.01 is to File Motions/Petitions. In RE Taylor 39 S.W.
3d 406,414(Tex.App.Waco.2001). and Re Salazar 134.S.W. 3d 357,358
(Tx. iWaco- 200;3)_.

                                    page 4
The Respondent in there Capacity as District Clerk of Grayson County
Texas. Has and Presiding Judges has a Ministeral Duty to Receive and
file Papers in Criminal Proceedings or Civil and Perform All Other
Duties Imposed on the Clerk by Law, Pursuant to TCCP.Art.2.21 Appear-
-ing the Orignal Petition for Expungment of Records,Was Not Set for
Doccett Call. To Date the Orignal Petition has Not Been Viewed or
Ruled om the "MERITS" That Relator is Entitled-to.-
Mandamus is Avalable to compel Action on the Part of those Charged
with a Positive Duties by Virtue of Their Offical Position. Hogan V.
Turland 428.S.W.3d 316(1968).
There are Generally Three Reqursities for a Writ of mandamus.A Legal
Duty to Preform, A Non-Discretionary Act, A Demand for Performance
and a Refusal to Preform. See Bantuelle V Renfroe 620 S.W.2d 635
(Tex.App.Dallas.1981).Writ,Red.D.N.RE; The Court of Criminal Appeals
Stated IN; Texas Board of pardons and Paroles V.Miller 590.S.W.2d
142(Tex.Crim.App.1979).Entitlement to a Writ of Mandamus,Must be shown
to be Clear and Indisputable, Unequivocal,Abundantly Clear. Knowles
V. Scofield 598.S.W.2d 854,860(Tex.Crim.App.1980)._ Relator Shows that
the Act Sought _to be Compelled is Strictly Ministerisal in Nature and
There is No Adequate Remedy at Law to Redress the Alleged Harm.
See Aranda V.Dist. Clerk 207 S.W.3d 785,786(Tex.Crim.App.2006)(Per
Curiam)(Orig Proceedings).
In Proper Case's Mandamus May issue to Compel a Trial Court to ''ACT~
In RE Blakeney 254 S.W.3d 569,66l(Tex.App.Texarkana.2008)(0rig Pro-
-ceedings) ;' also See Elilily   & Co.Marshall   829 S.W.2d 157,158(Tx.
1992). Trial Court Abuses Discretion by Refusing to Conduct Hearing
and Render Decission on Petition for Expunction of records. Chiles V.
Schuble 788fS.W. 2d 205,207(Tex.App.Houston.14th.Dist.1990).
Mandamus Appropriate Remedy to Require Trial Court to Hold Hearing
and Exercise Discretion. Trial Courts are Not Required to Consider
or Rule on Petitions unless the Petition is Called to the Courts
Attention. Blakeney 25 S.W.3d. at 662 Relation Called Future Delay
to Respond to the Petition as Shown in EXHIBITS ATTACHED.
Pursuant to Statutory Law, A Right has Been Shown in Exhibit(A) Not
Guilty,and Attached Indigency Statues, The Court Should Still file
the Petition.
Mandamus Relief Should be Granted, Relator has Demonstrated that (1)
The Act Sought to be Compelled is Purely Ministerial and (2) The rela~

                                  page 5
-tor has No other Adequate Legal Remedy. Court of Criminal Appeals
Defined the Ministerial Act Requirement to be One in which The re-
-lators, has a Clear and Disputable Right to the Relief Sought and
the merits of it's Legal Position are Beyond Dispute. See Neveu V.
Culver 105 S.W.3d. 641,642(Tex.Crim.App.2003)(Citing State Ex Rel
Rosenthal V.Poe 98 S.W.3d 194,198(Tex.App.2003) Also State Ex.Cel
trkos V.Fine 330. S.W.3d 904,907{Tex.Crim.App.2011).
All Requirements have been Met Under Tex.R.App.P.52. 3(K)(1)(a) In
Exhibits (A)(B)(C)(D)(E). The Trial Court has to Rule on Original
Petition for Expungment.

                                v.

(1.   Relator has No Other Legal Remedy Available to him Other than
      this Application for Mandamus.
(2.   This Action Sought is under the Facts of this Case, In Essence
      A Mere Ministrial Act. Which Respondent has a Legal Duty to
      Preform.
(3.   Relator has Properly Requested Respondent to Preform which
      Respondend has Refused to Answer Petition for Expungment and
      Formal Requests.

[EXHIBITS ATTACHED] Are Exactly What was Filed in the Court.

Wherefore, Premises Considered, Relator Prays that this Application
be Granted and that Respondent be Ordered to Rule on the Petition to
Expunge Records.
