In Re Leslie Ray Turner
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM SAN SABA COUNTY
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On November 8, 2022, relator Leslie Ray Turner filed a petition for writ of
mandamus asking this Court to compel the trial court to rule on his motion for DNA testing under
Chapter 64 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and for the appointment of counsel to represent him
in the proceeding. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221; Tex. Code Crim. Proc. arts. 64.01-05; see

an order signed on November 15, 2022, denying Turner’s motion. Accordingly, we dismiss the
petition as moot.
