IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

NO. WR-74,229-01

SONNY DALE MOORE, Relator

v.

PECOS COUNTY DISTRICT CLERK, Respondent

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS

CAUSE NO. 2567 IN THE 83RD JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT

FROM PECOS 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 filed three applications for a writ of habeas corpus in the 83rd Judicial District Court of Pecos County, that more than 35 days have elapsed, and that the applications have not yet been forwarded to this Court.

On August 11, 2010, we held this application in abeyance and ordered the respondent, the District Clerk of Pecos County, to file a response. On January 14, 2011, we received a habeas application that Realtor filed in the trial court on June 23, 2008. Relator contends, however, that he filed three habeas applications. The respondent shall state whether Relator has filed other habeas applications in the trial court and, if so, why these have not been forwarded to this Court. 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.
