Decision Date | 02 December 1896 |
Court | Court of Appeals of Texas. Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas |
W. P. Martin, for applicant. Mann Trice, for the State.
This is an original application to this court for a writ of habeas corpus. We have heretofore held that, See Ex parte Lambert (Tex. Cr. App.) 36 S. W. 81. The application could have been made to the judge of the county court of Bell county, if, indeed, the applicant could have resorted to the writ of habeas corpus at all. This is doubtful. See Ex parte Ezell, 40 Tex. 451; Ex parte Dickerson, 30 Tex. App. 448, 17 S. W. 1076; Ex parte Reynolds (Tex. Cr. App.) 34 S. W. 120. It appears on the face of the application that the applicant had been convicted in the city court of Temple of a misdemeanor, and, unless the judgment was absolutely void, he could not obtain relief by writ of habeas corpus. The application for writ of habeas corpus is refused.
