IN RE ERICK ANDIKA RELATOR

PER CURIAM

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

MEMORANDUM OPINION¹

1 See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4, 52.8(d).

The court has considered relator's "Petition For Writ of Mandamus to Correct an Illegal Sentence" and is of the opinion that relief should be denied.² Accordingly, relator's petition for writ of mandamus is denied.

2 Our denial of mandamus relief does not preclude relator from seeking relief on his claim of an illegal sentence through a properly-raised article 11.07 writ of habeas corpus. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 11.07 (West Supp. 2013); see also Ex parte Rich, 194 S.W.3d 508, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006) ("We have long held that a claim of an illegal sentence is cognizable on a writ of habeas corpus.").
