                            WRIT OF MANDAMUS
                               179th District Court
                              Harris County, Texas
                          Trial Court Cause No. 879527

                         MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On September 29, 2022, relator Jonathan A. Knox filed a petition for writ of
mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App.
P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the presiding judge of the
179th District Court of Harris County, to grant his motion for DNA testing and
ballistic testing and his motion for accrued time and hold an evidentiary hearing.
      On December 1, 2022, we sent relator notice that his petition did not comply
with the applicable Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See Tex. R. App. 52.3(j),
52.3(k)(1)(A), 52.7(a)(1), 52.7(a)(2); see also Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code
§ 132.001(e). On December 15, 2022, relator filed a response to the notice.

      Relator has not cured all defects in his petition. See Tex. R. App. 52.3(j),
52.3(k)(1)(A), 52.7(a)(1), 52.7(a)(2).

      Accordingly, we dismiss relator’s amended petition for writ of mandamus.
