OPINION

2Opinion of the Court · KeaslerKeasler, J.

which KELLER, P.J., and MEYERS, PRICE, WOMACK, HERVEY, and HOLCOMB, JJ., joined.

Bennett Weise filed an application for pretrial writ of habeas corpus, claiming that the illegal dumping statute as applied to him was unconstitutional because it failed to allege a culpable mental state. We granted review on our own motion to decide whether a pretrial writ of habeas corpus may issue on the ground that a penal statute is being unconstitutionally applied because of the allegations in the indictment or information. We conclude that it may not.
