MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-05-00386-CV
EX PARTE Frank Jermaine WILLIAMS
Original Habeas Corpus Proceeding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Catherine Stone, Justice
Karen Angelini, Justice
Rebecca Simmons, Justice
Delivered and Filed: June 22, 2005
PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS DENIED
On June 10, 2005, Frank Jermaine Williams filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus, complaining that his constitutional right to a speedy trial has been violated and, as such, he is entitled to dismissal of all charges against him. It is well-settled that a defendant may not use pretrial habeas corpus to obtain the dismissal of criminal charges on speedy trial grounds. Ex parte Weise, 55 S.W.3d 617, 620 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001); Ex parte Delbert, 582 S.W.2d 145, 146 (Tex. Crim. App. 1979). We, therefore, deny Williams’s petition for writ of habeas corpus.
