                                           MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                               PER CURIAM
         On September 25, 2013, Relator, Elizabeth Thurman, filed a petition for writ of habeas
corpus in which she alleges that she is being unlawfully confined in the Cherokee County Jail
pursuant to a void contempt order. Based upon the grounds stated in her petition, she seeks to be
released from custody.
         In an original habeas proceeding, the relator has the burden to provide this court with a
record sufficient to establish her right to habeas corpus relief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(k)(1),
52.7(a); Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992) (orig. proceeding). Here, however,
Thurman has failed to provide us with a record that is sufficient to support her claims. 1
Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of habeas corpus.
Opinion delivered October 31, 2013.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.

             On the date the petition was filed, the court sent Thurman a letter notifying her of the deficiencies.

habeas corpus should not issue, it is therefore CONSIDERED, ADJUDGED and ORDERED that
