11th Court of Appeals
Eastland, Texas
Opinion
Louie Bennett
Appellant
Vs. No. 11-03-00166-CR B Appeal from Taylor County
State of Texas
Appellee
The clerk=s record was filed in this court on May 16, 2003. The record contains a pro se pre-conviction writ of habeas corpus in which appellant argues that he is illegally restrained because of misidentification and lack of probable cause in the affidavit supporting the arrest warrant. The trial court denied the writ, and appellant perfected this appeal.
Upon receipt of the clerk=s record, the clerk of this court informed the parties in writing that it appeared this court did not have jurisdiction and requested that appellant respond by showing grounds for continuing this appeal. Appellant has filed a pro se response in which he contends that the trial court erred in denying his writ because the trial court never heard any evidence from the State concerning probable cause. We note that appellant=s complaints should be raised in a direct appeal in the event his trial results in a conviction.
This appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
