The opinion
IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. WR-88,926-01
EX PARTE KERRANCE RAMONE BROWN, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. W-25821-C-1 IN THE 251ST DISTRICT COURT
FROM RANDALL COUNTY
Per curiam.
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 of possession with
the intent to deliver a controlled substance and unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. He was
sentenced to thirty years’ imprisonment on each count. He did not appeal his convictions.
Applicant contends that trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance. Applicant has alleged
facts that, if true, might entitle him to relief. Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984); Ex parte
Patterson, 993 S.W.2d 114, 115 (Tex. Crim. App. 1999). Trial counsel filed a sworn affidavit in
response to Applicant’s claims, but the trial court made no findings of fact and conclusions of law.
2
The trial court shall determine whether the statements in counsel’s affidavit are credible,
counsel’s conduct was deficient, and Applicant was prejudiced. The trial court shall also make any
other findings of fact and conclusions of law that it deems relevant and appropriate to the disposition
of Applicant’s claims for habeas corpus relief.
This application will be held in abeyance until the trial court has resolved the fact issues. The
issues shall be resolved within 30 days of this order. A supplemental transcript containing all
affidavits and interrogatories or the transcription of the court reporter’s notes from any hearing or
deposition, along with the trial court’s supplemental findings of fact and conclusions of law, shall
be forwarded to this Court within 45 days of the date of this order. Any extensions of time must be
requested by the trial court and shall be obtained from this Court.
