Applicant was convicted of engaging in organized criminal activity and sentenced to life

imprisonment. The Second Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction. Roy v. State, 997 S.W.2d 863

The Court received this writ application on May 26, 2020. On March 10, 2021, this Court

denied the application without a written order based on the trial court’s findings and this Court’s

independent review of the record. After reconsideration on its own motion, the Court withdraws the
2

previous order entered in this application and substitutes this opinion.

Relief is granted. The sentence in cause number 0606216D in the Criminal District Court

Number Two of Tarrant County is set aside, and Applicant is remanded to the custody of the Sheriff

of Tarrant County for a new sentencing hearing. The trial court shall issue any necessary bench

warrant within ten days from the date of this Court’s mandate.

All grounds challenging the validity of the conviction are denied. Copies of this opinion
