IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 15,386-A IN THE 75TH DISTRICT COURT
LIBERTY COUNTY
O P I N I O N
In his subsequent application for a writ of habeas corpus, Applicant claimed that he is mentally retarded. We determined that Applicant had met the requirements of Code of Criminal Procedure Article 11.071, § 5, and we remanded to the trial court for findings of fact and conclusions of law. The trial court found that Applicant demonstrated, by a preponderance of the evidence, that he is mentally retarded. Ex parte Briseno, 135 S.W.3d 1 (Tex. Crim. App. 2004). The record supports the trial court's findings. Id. Accordingly, we grant relief. We reform Applicant's sentence to life imprisonment in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Correctional Institutions Division.
