In re Veronica Renee Youngblood

Summary

The Texas Court of Appeals, Third District, denied Veronica Renee Youngblood’s petition for writ of mandamus in a SAPCR proceeding. The court held that the appendix and mandamus record did not satisfy Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 52.3 and 52.7, leaving the court without a sufficient record to evaluate her jurisdictional challenge.

Holdings

1. Youngblood failed to establish her right to mandamus relief because the appendix and record did not provide a sufficient record for the court to assess her jurisdictional claim.

Questions Presented

1. Whether Youngblood established entitlement to mandamus relief by providing a sufficient record demonstrating that the trial court acted without jurisdiction.
2. Whether the court of appeals could assess Youngblood's jurisdictional challenge when the mandamus appendix and record did not comply with Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 52.3 and 52.7.
