The basic premise of Durham's Application (Habeas Corpus){is that TDCJ-ID removed his Discretionary Mandatory Supervision Date, not because of any current Aggravating elements, but based upon a 1992 Burglary of a Habitation, (Penal Code 30.02) whereat there was no findings of Subsection (d)(Z) Weapons or Explosives, or (d)(3) No injury to anyone before, during or after the Burglary, and with such the removal of Applicants ' Mandatory Supervision Date is legally unwarranted based upon those provisions and pursuant to House Bill 1433, codified as Texas Gov't Code 508.149. Applicant proffers that this Honorable Court has already decidied the exact same fundamental issues in Ex Parte Mabry, Ex Parte Thompson. and Ex Parte Keller 1 All of which included the same arguement as Applicant herein, and that is in short Mandatory Supervision for offense committed before the enactement of House Bill 1433.Tex Gov't Code 508.149. Moreover. Durham tenders that his original Convicting Court (232nd District, Harris County) Cause No 682249. already issued thier response indicating the status of the offense is one that is eligible for mandatory supervision and for the 252nd District court or TDCJ-ID to come back year later and force this applicant to re- address the issue is a waste of this courts time. see 682249-E Ex Parte Durham. Thompson, Keller and Mabry all faced the same condition(s) as Durham in that the TDCJ agency attempted to deprive them;of some right based upon newly enacted statutes that did not apply, herein Durham argues that his 1992 Burglary had no Victims or weapons and that he was eligible for Mandatory Supervision under the old law and that a first degree Burglary from 1992 with no weapons or explosives (d)(2) or lnjury to anyone (d)(3) is not one found on the Texas Gov't Code 508.149 list. And this is an issue or subject best determined in an evidentiary hearing. ll. Applicant further argues that'the Honorable Judge has misapplied or misunderstood Tex. Code of Crim. Proc. 11;07 §A(a) - (c). More specifically, Applicant does agre that ha did tila his first Appli¢atioh <ccA case No. wR-30-830-10), but argues that this was a writ based upon his Appeal Lawyer not informing him of his appeal being affirmed, and the CCA held previously in McPherson 2 ; "[I]nitial habeas‘corpus application seehing an out-of-time appeal was not a Challenge bothe conlctlon and therefore, did not bar a subsequint application claiming lneffective Assistance of Counsel. The initial application did not directly a _ seek to overturn the conviction..." With this stated. Applicant argues that the Judge was incorrect in trying to use this first habeas corpus to establish an Abuse of writ claim against Applicant and denying him relief on this instant application, based upon such Applicant objects to this finding based on those ruling of T£`CCA in McPherson. id. lll. Applicant agrees with the Judges finding in Applicants second writ, as this was the only application this Applicant has filed with respect to his final judgment and conviction, this challenge is currently pending in the United States Federal Court. Herein, the Judge proffers that Applicant should have listed his current claims in his last application and not waited until now to file what she considers a subsequint writ. and relies soley upon Ex Parte Whiteside 3 and Tex Code Crim Proc. 11.07 §4 (a)-(c). Applicant respectfully avers that two things prevented Applicant from listing his current claim in the previous application 1) Applicants tolling period under the Affective Death Penalty - Anti Terrorist Act (AEDPA) on his conviction was Coming to an end in short order. and during the same period, applicant was trying to satisfy his other legal obligation under Texas Gov't Code 501.0081 (Time Credit Dispute Resolution) whereat, the TDCJ-ID Classifications and Records Department has 180 Days to answer any time credit disputes with offenders, with such Applicant was faced with losing his ability to proceed into Federal Courts under a 28 U.S.C. 2254 by defaulting underethe "AEDPA" or file and contue to wait on the state agency (TDCJ-ID) to respond to the Time Credit Resolution Issue, Mandatory Superivsion. 2) Applicant filed his 11.07 and was unable to present the claims involving the Mandatory Supervision issues because the subject had not ripened, i.e. had this applicant filed without first getting his Time Credit Resolution Issue decided by TDCJ-ID the court would have dismissed the issue as failure to exhaust Administrative Remedies, but on the other hand if l file my State writ after the one year deadlineunder AEDPA l lose my right to redress my claims in fedweral court. The Fifth Circuit stated; "[P]RISONER ls ENTITLED in RAlsE Parole /Mahdatory supervision Claims in State Habeas Application, where he had filed his "Time Credit Resolution Form"and he did not get a response until after 180 days. Walters v. Quarterman Applicant proffers that he has diligently pursued every available avenue afforded to him by and through TDCJ-ID to resolve this issue without haveing to redress the Criminal Court System and has had no positive result with such. IV. Applicant tenders that this isinot$an attack on his final conviction and that he was not able to present the current claims on his previous application because the TDCJ-ID Agency had not completed its investigation and Applicants Administrative remedy had not been resolved. Further, Applicants time period under AEDPA was ending and Applicant in good conscience could not allow the period to expire, while knowing he had an additional right to a subsequint Habeas Application under the provisions of 11.07 §A(a)-(c). In close,-Applicant objects to the District Judges fi:n¢ findings herein stating he had not violated any Abuse of writ provisions and was unable to present-this new claim when the issue had not ripened and is not a challenge to his Judgment or conviction§-with such. Applicant prays this Honorable 'Court remand the Application for Habeas Corpus for an evidentiary hearing. so prayed. Respectfully Submitted _M William Durham [1] CASES 1.
