Opinion filed May 30, 2013 In The Eleventh Court of Appeals __________ No. 11-13-00165-CR _________ IN RE JEREMY DAVID HOWARD Original Mandamus Proceeding MEMORANDUM OPINION Relator, Jeremy David Howard, has filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus complaining of the Shelby County District Court with respect to relator s criminal proceedings. TEX. GOV T CODE ANN. § 22.221(b)(1) (West 2004) provides that each court of appeals for a court of appeals district may issue all writs of mandamus, agreeable to the principles of law regulating those writs, against a judge of a district or county court in the court of appeals district. Shelby County is not in the Eleventh Court of Appeals District. TEX. GOV T CODE ANN. § 22.201(l) (West Supp. 2012). Instead, Shelby County is in the Twelfth Court of Appeals District. See GOV T § 22.201(m). Therefore, we do not have jurisdiction to issue a writ of mandamus against either a judge or district court of Shelby County. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. PER CURIAM May 30, 2013 Do not publish. See TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b). Panel consists of: Wright, C.J., McCall, J., and Willson, J. 2
