                          MEMORANDUM OPINION
     Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Benavides
                     Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

       Appellant, Jose Isai Calvillo Ramos, proceeding pro se, filed a notice of appeal

seeking to challenge an order denying a post-conviction writ of habeas corpus. On

August 15, 2016, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that it appeared that the order

from which the appeal was taken was not an appealable order, and requested correction

of this defect within ten days or the appeal would be dismissed. Appellant has failed to

respond to the Court’s directive.
      Jurisdiction to grant post-conviction habeas corpus relief in felony cases rests

exclusively with the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art.

11.07, § 5 (West, Westlaw through 2015 R.S.); 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); In

re McAfee, 53 S.W .3d 715, 717–18 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, orig.

proceeding). Therefore, we are without jurisdiction to grant the requested relief.

      The appeal is DISMISSED for want of jurisdiction.

                                                                     PER CURIAM

Do not publish.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the
6th day of October, 2016.
