TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

                                    NO. 03-19-00205-CV

                                  In re David Bryan Ballard

                 ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM WILLIAMSON COUNTY

                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

              Relator, David Bryan Ballard, has filed a document with this Court, which we

have construed as a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court. See Surgitek, Bristol–Myers

Corp. v. Abel, 997 S.W.2d 598, 601 (Tex. 1999) (courts look to substance of pleading rather than

its caption or form to determine its nature); see also Tex. Gov’t Code § 22.221; Tex. R. App. P.

52.1. The petition for writ of mandamus is denied. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
