Relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in which he asserts the trial court has failed
to rule on several motions in his underlying criminal case. Relator is represented by trial counsel
below; therefore, he is not entitled to hybrid representation. Patrick v. State, 906 S.W.2d 481, 498
(Tex. Crim. App. 1995). The absence of a right to hybrid representation means relator’s pro se
mandamus petition will be treated as presenting nothing for this court’s review. See id.; see also
Gray v. Shipley, 877 S.W.2d 806, 806 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1994, orig. proceeding).

Outcome: Accordingly, relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is denied.
