Opinion

IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

NO. WR-78,123-01 EX PARTE RODOLFO ALVAREZ MEDRANO

ON APPLICATION FOR POST-CONVICTION WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

CAUSE NO. CR-0942-03-F IN THE 332^ND DISTRICT COURT

HIDALGO COUNTY

Per Curiam.

O R D E R

In August 2005, a jury found applicant guilty of the offense of capital murder. The jury answered the statutory punishment questions in such a way that the trial court set applicant's punishment at death. On July 12, 2007, the State filed in this Court its brief on applicant's direct appeal. Pursuant to Article 11.071 §§ 4(a) and (b)⁽¹⁾, applicant's initial application for a writ of habeas corpus was due to be filed in the trial court on or before November 26, 2007, assuming a motion for extension was timely filed and granted. It has been more than four years since the application was due in the trial court. Accordingly, we order the trial court to resolve any remaining issues within 90 days from the date of this order. The clerk shall then transmit the complete writ record to this Court within 120 days from the date of this order. Any extensions of time shall be obtained from this Court.

Further, we understand that a pro se subsequent application was filed in the trial court in March 2008 styled as a motion to amend the initial application. The district clerk is instructed to forward any pro se subsequent application to this Court immediately.

IT IS SO ORDERED THIS THE 1^ST DAY OF AUGUST, 2012.
