The opinion
IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. WR-96,034-02
EX PARTE CHRISHAD DESHAWN MANNING, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. W-2361179-A IN THE 363RD DISTRICT COURT
FROM DALLAS COUNTY
Per curiam.
OPINION
Applicant was convicted of manufacture or delivery of a controlled substance and sentenced
to seven 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 contends that plea was involuntary because part of the plea was that he would be
given the opportunity to obtain shock probation. However, the trial court did not timely sign the
order placing him on shock probation. Based on the record, the trial court has determined that
Applicant’s plea was involuntary.
Relief is granted. Brady v. United States, 397 U.S. 742 (1970). The judgment in cause
2
number F-23-61179 in the 363rd District Court of Dallas County is set aside, and Applicant is
remanded to the custody of the Sheriff of Dallas County to answer the charges as set out in the
indictment. The trial court shall issue any necessary bench warrant within ten days from the date of
this Court’s mandate.
Copies of this opinion shall be sent to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice–Correctional
Institutions Division and the Board of Pardons and Paroles.
