________________________________________________________________________

                               Original Proceeding
                 60th District Court of Jefferson County, Texas
                           Trial Cause No. B-197,361
________________________________________________________________________

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

       Relator Tyrone Gilbert filed a petition for writ of mandamus, in which he

asks this Court to compel the court coordinator for the 60th District Court to file

Gilbert’s interrogatories. Gilbert contends the court coordinator has a ministerial

duty to bring Gilbert’s discovery filings and related motions to the attention of the

trial court. Gilbert has failed to demonstrate that the exercise of our mandamus

jurisdiction would be appropriate. See generally Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. §

22.221(a), (b) (West 2004). Accordingly, we deny relief on the petition for writ of

mandamus.

                                         1
      PETITION DENIED.
