______________________________________________________________

IN RE: GILBERTO RODRIGUEZ

_____________________________________________________________

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus
_____________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM OPINION

 
Before Justices Yañez, Rodriguez, and Vela

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

	On February 27, 2008, relator, Gilberto Rodriguez, filed a petition for writ of
mandamus, in which he requested this Court to direct the Respondent, the Honorable
Nelva Gonzales Ramos, presiding judge of the 347th Judicial District Court of Nueces
County, Texas, to order the court reporter to make available for purchase a transcript of
his sentencing hearing in trial court cause number 02-CR-2531-H, styled State of Texas
v. Gilberto Rodriguez.            
	This Court requested a response, and on March 25, 2008, the State, acting through
the office of the Nueces County District Attorney, filed a Supplemental Response. 
Attached to the State's response are copies of the pertinent portion of the reporter's record
in trial court number 02-CR-2531-H.  The certificate reflects that a copy of the State's
Supplemental Response was mailed to the relator.  
	In his petition for writ of mandamus, relator complains that the Respondent orally
pronounced a sentence of seven years in cause number 02-CR-2531-H, but that the
written judgment reflects a sentence of eight years.  We have reviewed the pertinent
portion of the reporter's record, which reflects that the trial court orally pronounced a
sentence of eight years in cause number 02-CR-2531-H.
	Because the State's Supplemental Response both affords relator the relief that he
sought, and establishes that his claim is without merit, we deny relator's petition for writ of
mandamus.
