MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Perkes
Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam
Appellant, Ahmad Rasheed, attempted to perfect an appeal from convictions for
murder and deadly conduct. However, in 2008, we affirmed these convictions, and
thereafter, appellant sought and obtained permission to file out-of-time petitions for
discretionary review based on counsel’s failure to timely notify appellant that his
convictions had been affirmed. See Ex Parte Rasheed, Nos. AP-76,686 & AP-76,687,
2011 WL 5578942, at *1 (Tex. Crim. App. Nov. 9, 2011) (not designated for publication).
Through this current appeal, appellant continues to attack the previously-mentioned
convictions.
Jurisdiction to grant post-conviction habeas corpus relief in felony cases rests
exclusively with the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art.
11.07, § 5 (West, Westlaw through 2015 R.S.); Bd. of Pardons & Paroles ex rel. Keene
v. Ct. of Apps. for the Eighth Dist., 910 S.W.2d 481, 483 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995); In re
McAfee, 53 S.W .3d 715, 717–18 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, orig. proceeding).
Therefore, this appeal is DISMISSED for want of jurisdiction.
