IN RE: KEISHUNN L. REED, Relator
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On August 11, 2017, relator Keishunn L. Reed filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221 (West 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Denise Collins, presiding judge of the 208th District Court of Harris County, to grant his alleged requests for the appointment of counsel to represent him in appeals which he filed in our court, Nos. 14-17-00513-CR and 14-17-00514-CR.
On August 15, 2017, our court issued an opinion that dismissed these appeals, Nos. 14-17-00513-CR and 14-17-00514-CR, because appellant Keishunn L. Reed's notice of appeal was not timely filed. Therefore, relator's petition for writ of mandamus seeking to compel the trial court to appoint counsel to represent him in these appeals is moot.
