ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 1703989-B IN THE 228TH DISTRICT COURT FROM HARRIS COUNTY
ORDER
PER CURIAM
Applicant pleaded guilty to theft from a person and was sentenced to one year imprisonment. Applicant did not appeal his conviction. 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.
On February 20, 2024, the trial court entered an order designating issues. The district clerk forwarded this application to this Court. However, the application was forwarded before the trial court made findings of fact and conclusions of law. We remand this application to the trial court to complete its evidentiary investigation and make findings of fact and conclusions of law.
The trial court shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law within ninety days from the date of this order. The district clerk shall then immediately forward to this Court the trial court's findings and conclusions and the record developed on remand, including, among other things, affidavits, motions, objections, proposed findings and conclusions, orders, and transcripts from hearings and depositions. See Tex. R. App. P. 73.4(b)(4). The district clerk shall also forward to this Court the order on Applicant's Motion to Recuse. Any extensions of time must be requested by the trial court and obtained from this Court.
