DAVID LORENZA JOYNER, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 174th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1318560
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This is an attempted appeal from a judgment of contempt and commitment order
signed August 31, 2011. Orders for contempt of court cannot be appealed. Ex parte
Eureste, 725 S.W.2d 214, 216 (Tex. Crim. App. 1986). The proper course of review from
a contempt order entered in a district court is by an original application for writ of habeas
corpus. Id. See also Tex. Const. art. V, § 5.
We lack jurisdiction over this attempted appeal. Accordingly, the appeal is
ordered dismissed.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Anderson and Christopher.
