IN RE TYRONE JAMES JACKSON, Relator
 
 

 
ORIGINAL
PROCEEDING
WRIT
OF MANDAMUS
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M   O
P I N I O N
On August 16, 2004, relator
filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court.  See Tex.
Gov=t. Code Ann. ' 22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  Relator seeks
reduction of his pretrial bail.  
Relator is not entitled to mandamus relief
because he has an adequate remedy at law. See Ex parte
Weise, 55 S.W.3d 617, 620 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001)(pretrial writ of
habeas corpus is proper writ to raise claims regarding bail); Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art.
11.01 (Vernon 1977). 

Accordingly, we deny relator=s petition for writ of mandamus.
