The opinion
WOMACK, J.,
filed a dissenting opinion.
Because I hold that the procedure of Article 11.07 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is not available for an application that does not “seek relief from a felony judgment” {id., section 1), I would dismiss this application that seeks relief from an administrative decision of the Department of Criminal Justice. See Ex parte Whiteside, 12 S.W.3d 819, 822 (Tex.Cr.App.2000) (Womack, J., concurring).
