ON APPLICATIONS FOR WRITS OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NOS. 29304 HC-1 & 29290 HC-2 IN THE 6TH DISTRICT COURT FROM LAMAR COUNTY

ORDER

PER CURIAM

Applicant was convicted of obstruction or retaliation and tampering with a witness in a family violence case, and sentenced to concurrent terms of seven years' imprisonment. Applicant filed these applications for writs of habeas corpus in the county of conviction, and the district clerk forwarded them to this Court. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.07.

Applicant alleges a violation of the terms of his plea agreements due to the denial of supervised release. Applicant also alleges that he is owed pre-sentence jail time credit. Having reviewed Applicant's claims, we deny his first claim and dismiss his second claim. See Ex parte Deeringer, 210 S.W.3d 616, 618 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006) ("[W]hen a habeas applicant files an initial post-conviction application for writ of habeas corpus raising both claims challenging the conviction and a claim of the denial of pre-sentence jail-time credit, we will dispose of the claims challenging the conviction on the merits, either granting or denying relief as appropriate, and then dismiss the jail-time credit claim unless that claim is rendered moot[.]").
