EX PARTE WANDRA CHARALE JACOBS, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 1210004-A IN THE 232ND DISTRICT COURT FROM HARRIS COUNTY
Per curiam. OPINION
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 pleaded guilty to possession of less than one gram of cocaine and was sentenced to ninety days' imprisonment. She did not appeal her conviction.
Applicant contends, among other things, that her guilty plea was involuntary because she did not in fact possess a controlled substance. The trial court made findings of fact and conclusions of law and recommended that we grant relief. Ex parte Mable, 443 S.W.3d 129 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014).
Relief is granted. The judgment in cause number 1210004 in the 232nd District Court of Harris County is set aside. If in custody, Applicant is remanded to the custody of the Sheriff of Harris County to answer the charges in the information. The trial court shall issue any necessary bench warrant within 10 days after the mandate of this Court issues.
Copies of this opinion shall be sent to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Correctional Institutions Division and Pardons and Paroles Division. Filed: June 15, 2016
