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
