EX PARTE CARL DOUGLAS SEDERHOLM, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

O P I N I O N

On September 10, 2002, relator, Carl Douglas Sederholm, filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus. See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221(d); Tex. R. App. P. 52. Relator seeks release from restraint by the Sheriff of Wharton County, Texas, pursuant to a capias issued by the Hon. Daniel R. Sklar, Judge of the 329th Judicial District Court of Wharton County, Texas.

The court of appeals of a court of appeals district in which a person is illegally restrained may issue a writ of habeas corpus. Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221(d). Wharton County is not within the Fourteenth Court of Appeals District. Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.201(o). Therefore, we are without jurisdiction to issue the writ in this proceeding.

Accordingly, we dismiss relator=s petition for writ of habeas corpus for want of jurisdiction.

PER CURIAM

Petition Dismissed and Opinion filed September 11, 2002.
