OPINION

Applicant was convicted of possession of fraudulent identifying information, 10-50 pieces,

and sentenced to nine years’ imprisonment. 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 due process was violated and plea was involuntary because he

possessed less than ten pieces of identification, making him guilty only of a lesser offense. The State

and trial court agree and recommend that this Court grant relief.

We agree. Relief is granted. Brady v. United States, 397 U.S. 742 (1970); State v. Wilson, 2

324 S.W.3d 595 (Tex. Crim. App. 2010). The judgment in cause number F12-51838-V in the 292nd

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