ORDER

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, in Count I, of solicitation of a minor and was sentenced to four years’ imprisonment.

Applicant contends that his conviction in this case is based on a facially unconstitutional statute.

This Court has held the pertinent statute in this case to be facially unconstitutional. Ex parte

2 Lo, 424 S.W.3d 10 (Tex. Crim. App. 2013). On September 22, 2016, the trial court signed findings of fact and conclusions of law recommending relief be granted.

However, this sentence has fully discharged and Applicant does not allege any collateral consequences from the conviction. Applicant does not properly invoke this Court’s 11.07 jurisdiction in this cause. This application is therefore dismissed without prejudice. Filed: November 2, 2016 Do not publish
