In re Johnathan Johnson


ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM HAYS COUNTY


MEMORANDUM OPINION

Johnathan Johnson filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus presenting complaints of excessive bond and bond increase. Johnson's petition does not challenge any trial court order.

This Court lacks jurisdiction to conduct an original habeas corpus proceeding to reduce a bail bond. See Tex. Const. art. V, §§ 5, 6; Ex parte Enriquez, 2.S.W.3d 362, 363 n.1 (Tex. App.—Waco 1999, orig. proceeding).

Accordingly, we dismiss Johnson's petition for want of jurisdiction.
