EX PARTE DAVID ALEXANDER MAYO, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 142410201010 IN THE 230TH 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 was convicted of possession of methylenedioxy methamphetamine (“MDMA”) in an amount of one to four grams and was sentenced to 180 days’ imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction.
Applicant contends that newly discovered laboratory analysis in this case reflects that he did not possess any MDMA.
Applicant’s claim is supported by the habeas record. Applicant is entitled to relief. Ex parte
2 Mable, ___ S.W.3d ___, No. WR-81,358-01(Tex. Crim. App. Sept. 17, 2014).
Relief is granted. The judgment in Cause No. 142410201010 in the 230th District Court of Harris County is set aside, and Applicant is remanded to the custody of the Sheriff of Harris County to answer the charges as set out in the indictment. 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. Delivered: November 19, 2014 Do not publish
