Tex. App. Dist. 10

December 11, 2012

This is the petitioner's 10th petition for writ of mandamus. He alleges that testimony about DNA testing at his trial was sealed. There is no sealed testimony in the appellate record. While Chapter 64 may authorize successive motions, there comes a point at which a trial court does not abuse its discretion by simply refusing to rule on every motion a litigant may file.
