Opinion

No. 14-08-00249-CV

Memorandum Opinion filed April 4, 2008.

Original Proceeding Writ of Habeas Corpus.

Panel consists of Justices YATES, FROST, and SEYMORE.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


On April 1, 2008, relator, Clarence Johnson, filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus seeking release from jail. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221(d) (Vernon 2004); Tex. R. App. P. 52.

In a habeas corpus proceeding, a relator bears the burden of showing his entitlement to relief. Ex parte Occhipenti, 796 S.W.2d 805, 808 (Tex.App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 1990, orig. proceeding). Relator has not sustained his burden and shown that he is entitled to relief.

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