Opinion
IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-42,963-03
EX PARTE ANTHONY DEVON WRIGHT, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. FR43360 IN THE 264TH DISTRICT COURT FROM BELL COUNTY
Per curiam.
ORDER
Pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, the
clerk of the trial court transmitted to this Court this application for a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte
Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of burglary of a
habitation and sentenced to life imprisonment.
On, April 2, 2014, this Court dismissed this application as a subsequent application barred
by Article 11.07, Section 4 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. Upon further consideration,
this Court has determined that the dismissal was erroneous, because Applicant raised a meritorious
double jeopardy claim based on newly available law. This Court is also withdrawing its dismissal 2
of a companion application, and vacating the conviction and sentence in that case as barred by the
Constitutional prohibition on double jeopardy. The conviction and sentence in this case, however,
remain in effect. Therefore, this Court withdraws its previous dismissal of this application, and now
denies relief on this application.
