In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-21-00797-CV
IN RE JOHN THOMPSON, Relator
Original Proceeding from the 219th Judicial District Court
Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 219-83205-2021
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Schenck, Nowell, and Garcia
Opinion by Justice Nowell
John Thompson has filed a pro se original petition for writ of habeas corpus
contending he has been detained for over ninety days in violation of article 17.151
of the code of criminal procedure. The Court has no jurisdiction to consider an
original petition for writ of habeas corpus. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art.
11.05; TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. § 22.221(d); In re Spriggs, 528 S.W.3d 234, 236
(Tex. App.—Amarillo 2017, orig. proceeding); In re Ayers, 515 S.W.3d 356, 356–
57 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2016, orig. proceeding) (per curiam).
We dismiss relator’s petition for want of jurisdiction.
