IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

NO. AP-76,888

EX PARTE ANGEL STEVEN DOOLEY, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

CAUSE NO. CR10-0671-01 IN THE 43rd DISTRICT COURT

FROM PARKER 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 was convicted of assault causing bodily injury and sentenced to six years’ imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction.

Applicant contends that he is being improperly denied the pre-sentence jail time credit awarded on his judgment because of an error regarding the offense date listed on that same judgment.

The Applicant is entitled to relief. The record reflects that, due to an error in judicial reasoning, the trial court listed an incorrect offense date on the judgment. This error is preventing the Applicant from receiving the jail time credit that was correctly awarded in the judgment.1 Relief is granted. The judgment in Cause No. CR10-0671-01 in the 43rd District Court of Parker County is reformed to reflect an offense date of May 14, 2010, and the Applicant is to be awarded credit for the period of time listed on the judgment.

Copies of this opinion shall be sent to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice–Correctional Institutions Division and Pardons and Paroles Division.

Delivered: October 3, 2012
