AN ORIGINAL
  PROCEEDING
 
IN MANDAMUS
 

MEMORANDUM OPINION
 
Relator, Mr. Rosalio B. Gamon, has filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus
requesting that this Court order the Honorable Linda Chew, Judge of the 327th
District Court, to take action as set forth in his petition.
            To
obtain relief through a writ of mandamus, a relator must establish that no
other adequate remedy at law is available and that the act he seeks to compel
is ministerial.  State ex rel. Young v. Sixth Judicial Dist. Court of Appeals at
Texarkana, 236 S.W.3d 207, 210 (Tex.Crim.App. 2007).  An act is ministerial if it does not involve
the exercise of discretion.  State ex rel. Hill v. Court of Appeals for
the Fifth District, 34 S.W.3d 924, 927 (Tex.Crim.App. 2001).  Based on the petition and record provided,
Mr. Flores has not demonstrated that he is entitled to mandamus relief.  See
Tex. R. App. P. 52.8.  Accordingly, the petition is denied.
