ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 1383372-A IN THE 174TH DISTRICT COURT
FROM HARRIS COUNTY
Per curiam. Keasler and Yeary, JJ. concur.
OPINION
Applicant pleaded guilty and was convicted of possession of a controlled substance and
sentenced to three years’ imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction. 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 his plea was involuntary because he was not made aware of a lab
report showing that he possessed less than the required four grams of controlled substance to sustain
the charge. Based on the record, the trial court has determined that Applicant’s plea was involuntary.
Relief is granted. Ex parte Mable, 443 S.W.3d 129 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014), Brady v. United
States, 397 U.S. 742 (1970). The judgment in cause number 1383372 in the 174th District Court of
