IN RE ROBERT SOLIS, Relator

---

Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

---

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator, Robert Solis, has filed two pro se petitions for writ of mandamus, in which he requests that this Court direct the respondent ⁽¹⁾ "to vacate its void judgment" in trial court cause number 22684. ⁽²⁾ We dismiss the petition.

We do not have authority to order the trial court to vacate its judgment. Only the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has jurisdiction over matters related to final post-conviction felony proceedings. See Ater v. Eight Court of Appeals, 802 S.w. 2d 241, 243 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991) (orig. proceeding); In re McAffee, 53 S.W.3d 715 ( Tex. App. - Houston [1st Dist.] 2001,original proceeding).

We therefore dismiss the petitions for writ of mandamus in case number 01-07-0834-CR and in case number 01-08-00236-CR.

The record before this Court shows that on October 5, 1992, relator entered a plea of guilty, judicial confession, and written stipulation of evidence to the felony offense of theft. And on that same date, the trial court found relator guilty of felony theft and sentenced appellant to confinement for 61days.
