ANTHONY DAVID TEAGUE, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 219th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 366-82919-2013
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Whitehill, Osborne, and Carlyle
Opinion by Justice Whitehill
Anthony David Teague has filed a pro se notice of appeal of the trial court's "Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law" entered in response to Teague's application for writ of habeas corpus under Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 11.07 (procedure for application for writ of habeas corpus).
Article 11.07 vests complete jurisdiction over post-conviction relief from final felony convictions in the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. See id., § 5; Board of Pardons & Paroles ex rel. Keene v. Court of Appeals for Eighth Dist., 910 S.W.2d 481, 483 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995); In re Briscoe, 230 S.W.3d 196, 196 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2006, orig. proceeding) (per curiam). The intermediate courts of appeals have no role in criminal law matters pertaining to proceedings initiated under article 11.07. See In re McAfee, 53 S.W.3d 715, 718 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, orig. proceeding).
Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
