KENNETH RAY EDWARDS, Relator

v.

DALLAS COUNTY DISTRICT CLERK, Respondent

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS

CAUSE NOS. W05-49223-K(A) AND W05-79224-K(A)

IN THE CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT NO. 4 OF DALLAS COUNTY

Per curiam.

O R D E R

Relator has filed a motion for leave to file a writ of mandamus pursuant to the original jurisdiction of this Court. In it, he contends that he has not received copies as required by Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Art.11.07, Sec.7. He acknowledges receipt of copies of the district court's findings of fact and conclusions of law and trial and appellate counsels' affidavits, but he contends that he has not received copies of all of the answers, motions, pleadings, and orders filed in response to his applications for writs of habeas corpus filed in the Criminal District Court No. 4 of Dallas County.

In these circumstances, additional facts are needed. The respondent, the District Clerk of Dallas County, is ordered to file a response, which may be made by stating that the clerk has mailed or delivered copies to Relator in compliance with Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Art. 11.07, Sec.7. This application for leave to file a writ of mandamus shall be held in abeyance until the respondent has submitted the appropriate response. Such response shall be submitted within 30 days of the date of this order.
