IN RE DONALD RAY MEZZELL, Relator

 

 

 

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

 

 

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

On October 22, 2003, relator, Donald Ray Mezzell, filed  petitions for writs of habeas corpus.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221(d) (Vernon Supp. 2003); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  In is petitions, relator challenges the validity of two prior convictions for driving while intoxicated.


We are unable to consider relator=s petitions for writ of habeas corpus because our authority to entertain petitions for writ of habeas corpus extends solely to the actions of judges in civil cases.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221(d).  Therefore, we dismiss relator=s petitions for lack of jurisdiction. 

PER CURIAM

Petition Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed November 13, 2003.

Panel consists of Justices Edelman, Frost, and Guzman.
