ORDER Applicant was convicted of delivery of methamphetamine and sentenced to five years’ imprisonment. Applicant filed this application for a writ of habeas corpus in the county of conviction, and the district clerk forwarded it to this Court. See TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC. art. 11.07.

Applicant says the Parole Board released him to mandatory supervision. He says police arrested him for aggravated robbery and engaging in organized crime, and he says the Parole Board, because of the new charges, issued a revocation warrant regarding his release to mandatory supervision. Applicant says he has been confined more than 41-days since the revocation warrant was executed, but the State has not indicted him on the new offenses, so the revocation warrant should be lifted. See TEX . GOV ’T CODE 508.282(a)(1)(A); Morrissey v. Brewer, 408 U.S. 471 2 (1972); Ex parte Cordova, 235 S.W.3d 735, 736 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007).
