MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Osborne, Partida-Kipness, and Pedersen, III
Opinion by Justice Pedersen, III
Joseph Kelly Dingler filed original applications for writ of habeas corpus in this Court
challenging his confinement and the trial court’s jurisdiction and asking for his immediate release
and the return of all his personal property. We do not have jurisdiction to consider an original
application for writ of habeas corpus filed in a criminal proceeding. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC.
ANN. art. 11.05; TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. § 22.221(d); In re Ayers, 515 S.W.3d 356, 356–57 (Tex.
App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2016, orig. proceeding) (per curiam); see also Ortiz v. State, 299
S.W.3d 930, 932 (Tex. App.—Amarillo 2009, orig. proceeding) (court of appeals does not have
original habeas jurisdiction of bail issues).
Accordingly, we dismiss these appeals for want of jurisdiction.
