PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DENIED

           Relator Jesse Mendez has filed a pro se petition for a writ of mandamus asking this court to

compel the trial court to “set-aside with prejudice” four “pending criminal felony indictments due

to excessive delay.” Relator asserts his right to a speedy trial has been violated. Trial court records

show relator is represented by counsel. Relator is not entitled to hybrid representation. See Patrick

v. State, 906 S.W.2d 481, 498 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995); Rudd v. State, 616 S.W.2d 623, 625 (Tex.

Crim. App. 1981); Gray v. Shipley, 877 S.W.2d 806, 806 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.]1994, orig.

proceeding). Accordingly, the petition is denied.

                                                                         PER CURIAM
