Opinion
IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-51,239-05
EX PARTE TONY JEFF BREWER, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. D-1-DC-10-301395-A IN THE 167TH DISTRICT COURT FROM TRAVIS COUNTY
Per curiam.
ORDER
Applicant was convicted of two counts of aggravated assault. Applicant, through habeas
counsel, filed this application for a writ of habeas corpus in the county of conviction, and the district
clerk forwarded it to this Court. See TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC. art. 11.07.
Applicant contends that his trial counsel provided ineffective assistance at his jury trial.
There is no response from trial counsel in the habeas record. Applicant has alleged facts that, if true,
might entitle him to relief. Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984). Accordingly, the record
should be developed. The trial court is the appropriate forum for findings of fact. TEX . CODE CRIM .
PROC. art. 11.07, § 3(d). The trial court shall order trial counsel to respond to Applicant’s claims.
In developing the record, the trial court may use any means set out in Article 11.07, § 3(d). 2
The trial court shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law as to whether trial counsel’s
performance was deficient and Applicant was prejudiced. The trial court may make any other
findings and conclusions that it deems appropriate.
The trial court shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law within ninety days from
the date of this order. The district clerk shall then immediately forward to this Court the trial court’s
findings and conclusions and the record developed on remand, including, among other things,
affidavits, motions, objections, proposed findings and conclusions, orders, and transcripts from
hearings and depositions. See TEX . R. APP . P. 73.4(b)(4). Any extensions of time must be requested
by the trial court and obtained from this Court.
