EX PARTE RONALD T. SPRIGGS, Applicant
ON APPLICATIONS FOR WRITS OF HABEAS CORPUS AND MANDAMUS CAUSE NO. 71,817-E IN THE 108TH DISTRICT COURT FROM POTTER COUNTY Per curiam. ORDER
Applicant has filed an application for writ of mandamus and/or habeas corpus pursuant to this Court's authority to issue extraordinary writs. TEX. CONST. art. V, § 5(c). He challenges the order finding him in contempt of court. It appears from the record that a separate hearing was conducted under authority of Section 21.002(d) of the Government Code to determine Applicant's guilt or innocence on July 28, 2017. A written order of contempt and commitment was signed shortly thereafter. The record provided contains no record from the July 28 hearing, apart from the written order that followed. Applicant shall provide a reporter's record from that hearing or state that no such record exists or is available. In either case, Applicant's response shall be submitted within 30 days of the date of this order. These applications for leave to file a writ of mandamus and a writ of habeas corpus will be held in abeyance for 30 days. This Court's stay of the underlying order entered on August 10, 2017, remains in effect pending further order of this Court. Filed: September 13, 2017
