STATEMENT OF THE CASE

This appeal stems from a conviction in the 117th Judicial Court, Nueces

County, Texas Case No:15-CR-4391-B for Aggravated Kidnapping Count l; and Aggravated Assault Count 2 under Texas Penal Code Section 22.04 & Section 22.02. After a jury trial the Appellant was found guilty and the Trial Court sentenced Appellant to thirty years for each Count with the sentences to run concurrently. Judge Sandra L. Watts signed the Judgment of Conviction by Jury. The parties in the Court of Appeals were Andrew McClendon, Appellant and the State of Texas. The Memorandum opinion was decided by Justices Contreas, Benavides, and Longoria. The opinion was written by Justice Nora Longoria. Citation for the Case was found in Tex: Court of Appeals, 13th Dist., 2017 - Google Scholar. No motions for rehearing or en banc consideration were filed and none are pending.

STATEMENT OF JURISDICTION 1. The Supreme Court has jurisdiction under the Texas Government Code Section

22.001 (a)(6) in that it appears that an error of law has been committed by the 13th Court

of Appeals, and that error is of such importance to the jurisprudence of the State, that in the opinion of the supreme court that it requires correction. This is not a case in which the jurisdiction of the court of appeals is made final by statute. This case is important because it concerns both State and Federal Constitutional issues involving the double jeopardy clause and its application 2. The Supreme Court also has jurisdiction over this appeal under Government Code Section 22.001(a)(3) because this case involves the construction or [or validity] of a statute necessary to the determination of the case..

ISSUES PRESENTED

1. Did the Court of Appeals err when it refused to find that the reporter’s

record of the trial in cause number 14-CR-2634-B nor the expunction order were part of the record before it so that it could consider the double jeopardy provisions of both the U.S. and Texas Constitutions?

2. Did the Court of Appeals err when it affirmed the trial court’s judgment instead of finding that it had no jurisdiction to hear the appeal and order the case abated to the trial court for a habeas corpus hearing in order to produce a record of the first trial to be used in the second trial so that justice could be done?

3. Did the Court of Appeals err when it found it could not consider the issue of double jeopardy because it did not have a sufficient appellate record to review the issue?

4. Should the Court of Appeals sua sponte have found that Appellant’s trial counsel as a matter of law provided ineffective counsel to Appellant because he failed to request the trial court to take judicial notice of the record in cause number 14-CR-2634-B or the terms of the Expunction Order it signed after the trial so that there would be a sufficient record for the Court of Appeals to render a decision on the issue of double jeopardy?
