BRUCE LEE TAYLOR, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed September 10, 2013.
On Appeal from the 339th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1303055
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant seeks to appeal the trial court's denial of his motion for appointment of counsel pursuant to article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. Appellant entered a guilty plea to aggravated robbery. This court dismissed his direct appeal because appellant pleaded guilty pursuant to a plea bargain and had no right to appeal. Taylor v. State, No. 14-12-00802-CR; 2012 WL 4753504 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] Oct. 4, 2012, no pet.) (not designated for publication). We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
Courts of appeals have no jurisdiction over post-conviction writs of habeas corpus in felony cases. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.07; Board of Pardons and Paroles ex. rel. Keene v. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Dist., 910 S.W.2d 481, 483 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995); In re Briscoe, 230 S.W.3d 196, 196-97 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2006, orig. proceeding); Self v. State, 122 S.W.3d 294, 295 (Tex. App.—Eastland 2003, no pet.). To complain about any action, or inaction, of the convicting court, the applicant may seek relief from the Court of Criminal Appeals. See Tex. Const. art. V, § 5.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
