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.
