MEMORANDUM OPINION

2Per curiam

This is an original proceeding in which Russell R. Clanton attacks the judgment and sentence of the District Court of Tulsa County in Case No. 22506. Petitioner has styled his petition an “appeal of a lower court decision” which was rendered on May 17, 1968, in the District Court of Tulsa County, denying a petition for a “dismissal of sentence under corpus jurisdiction law.” However, since Petitioner contends that the judgment and sentence of the District Court of Tulsa County is void, we will entertain his petition as an application for a writ of habeas corpus.
