in Re Alishia Morris, Relator

In The
Court of Appeals
Seventh District of Texas at Amarillo
No. 07-19-00162-CV
IN RE ALISHIA MORRIS, RELATOR
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
June 28, 2019
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and PARKER, JJ.
Relator, Alishia Morris, an inmate proceeding pro se, filed a petition for writ of
mandamus in this Court on April 10, 2019. However, her petition seeks relief that cannot
be provided by mandamus. Consequently, we construe Morris’s petition to be a petition
for writ of habeas corpus. We dismiss this original proceeding for want of jurisdiction.
Morris filed a petition seeking similar relief and raising substantially similar
arguments on December 5, 2017. This Court dismissed that original proceeding for want
of jurisdiction on January 16, 2018. Ex parte A.M., No. 07-17-00451-CV, 2018 Tex. App.
LEXIS 475, at *3 (Tex. App.—Amarillo Jan. 16, 2018, orig. proceeding) (per curiam). Due
to the substantial similarities in Morris’s current petition and her previous petition, we
again dismiss her petition for want of jurisdiction. Id.
Per Curiam
