On Petition for Writ of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Ya ez, Rodriguez, and Garza
Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Relator, Calvin Ray Hyder, an inmate presently incarcerated at the Telford Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Institutional Division at New Boston, Texas, has filed a petition for a writ of mandamus. Relator asks this Court to compel the clerk of the 156th District Court of Bee County to furnish him with a filing date and cause number for a writ of habeas corpus mailed to the court by relator on October 6, 2006. We conclude, however, that we do not have jurisdiction to do so. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. 22.221(b) (Vernon 2004) (governing the scope of the mandamus power of a court of appeals and providing that court of appeals may issue writs of mandamus against a judge of district or county court) (emphasis added).

Accordingly, we dismiss relator's petition for want of jurisdiction. Per Curiam

 

Do not publish.

Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
