Opinion by Justice Moseley
                                                                              
                                                                              

                                                      MEMORANDUM OPINION
 
            Stephen Clay Johnston filed this
application for writ of habeas corpus complaining that he was illegally
incarcerated despite the fact that a “final plea bargain has been reached and
signed by all parties.”  
            There is no indication that the
trial court has ruled on Johnston’s application for writ of habeas corpus.  In fact, the certificate of service contains
language indicating that the application may have been received by the trial
court on the same date as it was received in this Court.  Thus, we have no jurisdiction to order the
trial court to rule in a certain manner or to address the merits of Johnston’s
claim.[1]  See Ex
parte Young, 257 S.W.3d 276, 277 (Tex. App.––Beaumont 2008, orig.
proceeding); In re Ramirez, 994
S.W.2d 682, 684 (Tex. App.––San Antonio 1998, orig. proceeding).  
            We deny the application for want of
jurisdiction.

[1]Johnston’s
application does not present a situation in which this Court would have
original jurisdiction over the writ of habeas corpus.  See
Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. §§ 22.002, 22.221 (Vernon
2004).
