MEMORANDUM OPINION

LaDon Kentrall King II filed an original petition for a writ of habeas

corpus on May 19, 2025. On June 5, 2025, the State filed a motion to dismiss,

alleging that this Court does not have jurisdiction over this proceeding. On

June 9, 2025, King filed a motion to transfer this proceeding to the Court of

Criminal Appeals, acknowledging that this Court does not have jurisdiction

over this proceeding. We agree with the parties.

Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. King’s and

the State’s pending motions are dismissed as moot.
