IN RE DONALD RAY MEZZELL, Relator
 
 

 
ORIGINAL
PROCEEDING
WRIT
OF HABEAS CORPUS
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M   O
P I N I O N
On October 22, 2003, relator, Donald Ray Mezzell, filed  petitions for writs of habeas
corpus.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221(d) (Vernon Supp. 2003); see
also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  In is petitions, relator challenges the validity of two prior convictions
for driving while intoxicated.

We are unable to consider relator=s petitions for writ of habeas corpus
because our authority to entertain petitions for writ of habeas corpus extends
solely to the actions of judges in civil cases. 
See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221(d).  Therefore, we dismiss relator=s petitions for lack of
jurisdiction.  
PER CURIAM
Petition Dismissed and Memorandum
Opinion filed November 13, 2003.
Panel consists of Justices
Edelman, Frost, and Guzman.
