Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-13-00026-CV

In re Kriss Camp

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM TOM GREEN COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator Kriss Camp, an inmate, has filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus,

complaining of the district court’s alleged refusal to transmit his pending application for writ of

habeas corpus to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals.1 See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 11.07

(West Supp. 2012). However, this Court is without jurisdiction to grant Camp relief here. See id.;

Ater v. Eighth Court of Appeals, 802 S.W.2d 241, 243 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991); In re McAfee,

53 S.W.3d 715, 717-18 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, orig. proceeding). Accordingly, we

dismiss Camp’s petition for want of jurisdiction.
