TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-21-00272-CR Ex parte Carlos A. Ulloa FROM THE 147TH DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY NO. D-1-DC-06-301119, THE HONORABLE WILFORD FLOWERS, JUDGE PRESIDING MEMORANDUM OPINION In 2006, appellant Carlos Ulloa (also known as Carlos Gomez) pleaded guilty to the offense of aggravated sexual assault of a child and was sentenced to thirty years’ imprisonment. Since that time, Ulloa has filed multiple habeas-corpus applications in the Court of Criminal Appeals, all of which have been either denied or dismissed without written order. More recently, Ulloa has been filing in this Court notices of appeal from that court’s dismissals. See, e.g., Ulloa v. State, No. 03-21-00030-CR, 2021 WL 728183, at *1 n.1 (Tex. App.—Austin Feb. 25, 2021, no pet.) (mem. op., not designated for publication); Gomez v. State, No. 03-20-00197-CR, 2020 WL 1814617, at *1 (Tex. App.—Austin Apr. 9, 2020, no pet.) (mem. op., not designated for publication). This appeal is Ulloa’s latest effort to challenge his 2006 felony conviction. However, only the Court of Criminal Appeals has jurisdiction in final post-conviction felony proceedings, see Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.07, § 5, and we have no authority to review that court’s decisions, see State ex rel. Wilson v. Briggs, 351 S.W.2d 892, 894 (Tex. Crim. App. 1961); see also Ater v. Eighth Court of Appeals, 802 S.W.2d 241, 243 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991) (orig. proceeding); Kelley v. State, No. 03-15-00577-CR, 2016 WL 612930, at *1 (Tex. App.—Austin, Feb. 12, 2016, no pet.) (mem. op., not designated for publication). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction. __________________________________________ Gisela D.
