EX PARTE JASON M JONES, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 2023CR8935W-W1 IN THE 227TH DISTRICT COURT BEXAR COUNTY

Per curiam.

OPINION

Applicant was convicted of violation of a bond condition/protective order

and sentenced to five years’ imprisonment. He 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.

Applicant contends that his conviction violates Due Process because the 2

case should have been dismissed as part of Applicant’s plea bargain in

2021CR11200. Based on the record, the trial court has determined that the instant

case should have been dismissed and that Applicant should not have been

permitted to plea on this cause.

We agree. Relief is granted. Gibson v. State, 803 S.W.2d 316 (Tex. Crim.

App. 1991). The judgment in cause number 2023CR8935W-W1 in the 227th

District Court of Bexar County is set aside, and Applicant is remanded to the

custody of the Sheriff of Bexar County to have the trial court dismiss this cause

number pursuant to this opinion. The trial court shall issue any necessary bench

warrant within ten days from the date of this Court’s mandate.

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

Justice–Correctional Institutions Division and the Board of Pardons and Paroles.
