IN RE ALISHIA MORRIS, RELATOR
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
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.
