Opinion
Court of Appeals Tenth Appellate District of Texas 10-25-00269-CR
In re Jeremy Vance Wickman
Original Proceeding CHIEF JUSTICE JOHNSON delivered the opinion of the Court.
MEMORANDUM OPINION Jeremy Vance Wickman filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus as an original proceeding in this Court contending that he was being illegally confined and unlawfully restrained. Original jurisdiction to issue a writ of habeas corpus in a criminal proceeding is limited to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, the district courts, and the county courts. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. art. 11.05. In his application, Wickman does not allege that he has filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the trial court and is attempting to appeal the trial court’s ruling. Because he is seeking direct relief from this Court, we lack jurisdiction in this proceeding. See Ex parte Twyman, 716 S.W.2d 951, 952 (Tex. Crim. App. 1986).
The petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed by Jeremy Vance Wickman on August 15, 2025, is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
