LOVE, J.,
concurs in result with reasons.
I respectfully concur in the result. I concur in the majority’s decision to deny the writ; however, I would deny the writ on the showing made. The relator has failed to comply with Local Rule 24.1 Consequently, I find this Court is not in a position to review evidence from the body camera video footage, which I find necessary to address the merits of the relator’s writ application.
*919The hearing transcript indicates that the State relied on the video footage to establish its timeline of events in argument before the trial court. Likewise, the testifying officers were questioned about the sequence of events as presented in video footage. Finally, the hearing transcript suggests that the trial court relied on the body camera video footage in denying the motion to suppress evidence and statement. Therefore, I would order the relator to comply with Local Rule 24 so that this Court may adequately review the merits of relator’s application for supervisory review.
For these reasons, I find that this Court is not in a position to address the merits of the relator’s writ application in its current state, and would deny the writ on the showing made.
