IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS No. 10-10-00084-CV EX PARTE BILLY RAY EVANS

Original Proceeding

MEMORANDUM OPINION

The petition for writ of habeas corpus is denied.

REX D. DAVIS Justice Before Chief Justice Gray, Justice Reyna, and Justice Davis (Petitioner seeks a bail reduction by his petition for writ of habeas corpus. Chief Justice Gray would dismiss the petition for writ of habeas corpus because we have no jurisdiction to grant such a writ, much less when the petition is filed against a sheriff outside our geographic jurisdiction, Dallas County.

Accordingly, Chief Justice Gray respectfully dissents to the denial of the petition.)

Petition denied Opinion delivered and filed April 7, 2010 [OT06]
