IN RE GILBERT MIRELES, Relator

 

 

 

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

 

 

S U B S T I T U T E   M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

On June 16, 2009, relator, Gilbert Mireles, attempted to file a post-conviction petition for writ of habeas corpus.  In his petition, relator asks this court to find his felony conviction for aggravated sexual assault void.

We are unable to consider relator=s petition for writ of habeas corpus because our authority to entertain petitions for writ of habeas corpus does not extend to post-conviction writs in felony cases.  See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 11.07 (Vernon 2008).  Therefore, we dismiss relator=s petition for lack of jurisdiction. 

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Anderson, Guzman, and Boyce
