IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-23,600-10

IN RE REGINALD DONNELL REECE, Relator

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS CAUSE NO. 11F0746-202 IN THE 202ND DISTRICT COURT FROM BOWIE COUNTY

Per curiam.

ORDER

Relator has filed a motion for leave to file a writ of mandamus pursuant to the original

jurisdiction of this Court. In it, contends that filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus in the

202nd District Court of Bowie County, that more than 35 days have elapsed, and that the application

has not yet been forwarded to this Court.

In these circumstances, additional facts are needed. Respondent, the District Clerk of Bowie

County, is ordered to file a response, which may be made by submitting the record on such habeas

corpus application, submitting a copy of a timely filed order which designates issues to be 2

investigated (see McCree v. Hampton, 824 S.W.2d 578, 579 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992)), or stating that

Relator has not filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus in Bowie County. Should the

response include an order designating issues, proof of the date the district attorney’s office was

served with the habeas application shall also be submitted with the response. This application for

leave to file a writ of mandamus shall be held in abeyance until Respondent has submitted the

appropriate response. Such response shall be submitted within 30 days of the date of this order.
