ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. W2100638-A IN THE 265TH DISTRICT COURT FROM DALLAS COUNTY.
ORDER
PER CURIAM.
Applicant pleaded guilty to theft and was sentenced to fifteen years' imprisonment. Applicant filed this application for a writ of habeas corpus and several supplements in the county of conviction, and the district clerk properly forwarded them to this Court. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.07.
Applicant raises many grounds for relief. The trial court did not designate issues before the district clerk forwarded the habeas record, but the trial court later found unresolved factual disputes existed and entered an order designating issues. This Court agrees that Applicant has alleged facts that, if true, might entitle him to relief. We remand the application and supplements 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). Any extensions of time must be requested by the trial court and obtained from this Court.
