The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2018CR0676-W5 Honorable Kristina Escalona, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice Lori I. Valenzuela, Justice Lori Massey Brissette, Justice Delivered and Filed: October 30, 2024 DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION Appellant seeks to appeal the dismissal of his post-conviction application for writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to article 11.07. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. art. 11.07, § 4(a).

Under the exclusive procedure outlined in article 11.07, only the convicting trial court and the Court of Criminal Appeals have jurisdiction to review the merits of a post-conviction habeas petition; there is no role for the intermediate courts of appeals in the statutory scheme. Id. art. 11.07, § 5 (providing “[a]fter conviction the procedure outlined in this Act shall be exclusive and any other proceeding shall be void and of no force and effect in discharging the prisoner.”). Only 04-24-00379-CR

the Court of Criminal Appeals has jurisdiction to grant post-conviction release from confinement for persons with a felony conviction. TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. art. 11.07, § 3; Hoang v. State, 872 S.W.2d 694, 697 (Tex. Crim. App. 1993); In re Stone, 26 S.W.3d 568, 569 (Tex. App.—Waco 2000, orig. proceeding). The intermediate courts of appeals have no jurisdiction over post- conviction writs of habeas corpus in felony cases. Bd. of Pardons & Paroles ex rel. Keene v. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Dist., 910 S.W.2d 481, 483 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995) (orig. proceeding); see In re Coronado, 980 S.W.2d 691, 692 (Tex.
