Fourteenth Court of Appeals
NO. 14-13-00764-CR
IN RE CHRISTOPHER DUPUY, Applicant
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
405TH District Court
Galveston County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 13-CR-1365
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On September 3, 2013, Christopher Dupuy filed a petition for writ of habeas
corpus in this Court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. §22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P.
52.
We are unable to consider applicant’s petition for writ of habeas corpus in
this criminal case because our habeas jurisdiction extends solely to situations in
which a relator’s restraint of liberty arises from a violation of an order, judgment,
or decree of a court or judge in a civil case. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. §
22.221(d). Therefore, we dismiss applicant’s petition for lack of jurisdiction.
PER CURIAM
Panel Consists of Justices Frost, Boyce, and Jamison.
Do Not Publish — Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
