IN RE MARYAM JAMILAH, Relator
 
 

 
ORIGINAL
PROCEEDING
WRIT
OF PROHIBITION
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M   O
P I N I O N
On November 1, 2004, relator filed a petition
for writ of prohibition in this Court.  See
Tex. Gov=t. Code Ann. ' 22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  
A
writ of prohibition is proper to prevent a trial court from acting when the
court lacks jurisdiction.  Bd. of
Disciplinary Appeals v. McFall, 888 S.W.2d 471, 472 (Tex. 1994)(orig. proceeding).  The writ is designed to operate like an
injunction issued by a superior court to control, limit, or prevent action in a
court of inferior jurisdiction.  Holloway
v. Fifth Court of Appeals, 767 S.W.2d 680, 682 (Tex. 1989).  Relator claims that the justice of the peace
did not have jurisdiction to consider a forcible entry and detainer action
filed against relator.  However, relator
has not established that she is entitled to extraordinary relief.  Accordingly, we deny relator=s petition for writ of prohibition.
