Opinion

IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-94,276-01

EX PARTE JOSE LUIS GOMEZ, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 679635-A IN THE 263RD DISTRICT COURT FROM HARRIS COUNTY

Per curiam.

ORDER

Applicant pleaded guilty to possession of marijuana 5-50 lbs and was sentenced to two years’

imprisonment. Applicant did not appeal his conviction. Applicant 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.

On June 29, 2022, the trial court entered an order designating issues. The district clerk

properly forwarded this application to this Court following the extension of time under Texas Rule

of Appellate Procedure 73.5. However, the application was forwarded before the trial court made

findings of fact and conclusions of law. We remand this application to the trial court to complete

its evidentiary investigation and make findings of fact and conclusions of law. 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.
