Original Proceeding Petition for Writ of Mandamus Denied.

Panel consists of Justices ANDERSON, HUDSON, and FROST.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


On August 16, 2004, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court. See TEX. GOV'T. CODE ANN. § 22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 52. Relator seeks reduction of his pretrial bail.

Relator is not entitled to mandamus relief because he has an adequate remedy at law. See Ex parte Weise, 55 S.W.3d 617, 620 (Tex.Crim.App. 2001) (pretrial writ of habeas corpus is proper writ to raise claims regarding bail); TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 11.01 (Vernon 1977).

Accordingly, we deny relator's petition for writ of mandamus.
