IN RE ZAZA MAMULAISHVILI, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
281st District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2021-03816

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On February 15, 2023, relator Zaza Mamulaishvili (“Zaza”) filed a petition
for writ of habeas corpus in this court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221; see
also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, Zaza asks this court to compel the
Honorable Christine Weems, presiding judge of the 281st District Court of Harris
County, to vacate the portion of the trial court’s March 8, 2022 final judgment
holding Zaza in contempt.
Relator has misrepresented the facts in his petition. Relator’s petition on
page 2, under “statement of jurisdiction,” states that “[h]ere, Relator is released on
bond pending review of his petition.” Additionally, the petition on page 21, under
“prayer,” requests that “the Court discharge any bond paid by Relator and for all
other relief to which he may be entitled.”

After the court requested relator supplement the record with evidence of a
bond, relator filed a letter that provides as follows: “The bond release does not
exist in this matter as Mr. Mamulaishvili (“Zaza”) has not been in custody and is
not on bond provision.”

Relator has not established that he is entitled to habeas relief. Accordingly,
we deny relator’s petition for writ of habeas corpus.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Christopher and Justices Jewell and Spain.
