                   Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam1

       Relator, Brian Howell, has filed what appears to be a petition for writ of mandamus

alleging that the Honorable Jose Longoria, presiding judge of the 214th Judicial District

Court of Nueces County, Texas, abused his discretion by failing to rule on a motion filed

denying relief, the court may hand down an opinion but is not required to do so.”).
should be denied. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). Accordingly, relator’s petition for writ of

mandamus is DENIED.
