Gilmore said some materials Walmart used were outside the formal appeals record and sought their preservation.
The petition concerned the handling of court filings and records in Gilmore's Fifth Circuit case.
Question presented
1. Whether mandamus is warranted when the Fifth Circuit docket and related notices reflect materially inconsistent descriptions of Petitioner ’ s submissions, including an April 28, 2026 filing later described as a motion to vacate an April 22, 2026 order, correct the docket, strike appellee filings, and stay issuance of the mandate. 2. Whether mandamus is warranted when submissions filed on May 12, 2026 were later marked DOCUMENT RECEIVED - NO ACTION TAKEN because the clerk ’ s office deemed the selected filing event inconsistent with the entitled document, rather than entering the submissions on the docket in their actual form. 3. Whether mandamus is warranted to require preservation and proper placement of materials where Petitioner contends were used by Walmart, including papers not part of the formal record on appeal, where petitioner contends those materials bear on alleged docket irregularities and the integrity of the judicial record.
