Opinion

IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-83,866-01

EX PARTE CHRISTOPHER DEMONTRONDE ABBS, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 14-08-08758-CR(1) IN THE 410th DISTRICT COURT FROM MONTGOMERY COUNTY

Per curiam.

OPINION

Pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, the

clerk of the trial court transmitted to this Court this application for a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte

Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of possession of a

controlled substance with intent to deliver and sentenced to two years’ imprisonment. He did not

appeal his conviction.

Applicant contends that his plea was involuntary because he was admonished of the incorrect

punishment range in this case.

The trial court has signed agreed findings of fact and conclusions of law supported by the 2

record recommending relief be granted. Applicant is entitled to relief. Ex parte Huerta, 692 S.W.2d

681 (Tex. Crim. App. 1985).

Relief is granted. The judgment in Cause No. 14-08-08758-CR in the 410th District Court

of Montgomery County is set aside, and Applicant is remanded to the custody of the Sheriff of

Montgomery County to answer the charges as set out in the indictment. The trial court shall issue

any necessary bench warrant within 10 days after the mandate of this Court issues.

Copies of this opinion shall be sent to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice–Correctional

Institutions Division and Pardons and Paroles Division.
