In re: SAMMY EARL WOODS
Original Mandamus Proceeding
Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Sammy Earl Woods has filed a petition for writ of mandamus in which he asks this Court to issue an order finding that the District Clerk of Red River County did not transmit his application for habeas corpus relief to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, and then to also find that his application was brought in good faith. This Court has jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus against a "judge of a district or county court in the court of appeals district." TEX. GOV'T CODE ANN. § 22.221(b) (West 2004). In this context, we have no jurisdictional authority to issue a writ of mandamus against the district clerk.
We deny the petition.
Bailey C. Moseley
