AN ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
		IN MANDAMUS

MEMORANDUM OPINION ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS

	Relator, Joseph Roberts has filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus, seeking an order 
compelling the Texas Division of Criminal Justice Institutional Division to restore 6,137 days of
good conduct time credit.
	This court does not have the authority to issue a writ of mandamus against the Texas
Department of Criminal Justice.  See Tex.Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221(a), (b)(Vernon 2004).
Therefore, mandamus relief is denied.
