IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. WR-79,741-01
EX PARTE BENNIE DARRYL SCOTT, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 2010-667-C1 IN THE 19TH DISTRICT COURT
FROM MCLENNAN COUNTY
Per curiam.
OPINION
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 two counts of
endangering a child and sentenced to five years’ imprisonment for each count. He did not appeal
his conviction.
Applicant contends that his pleas were involuntary because the plea agreement cannot be
followed. The trial court determined that Applicant pleaded guilty under an agreement that these
sentences would run concurrently with a federal sentence. The trial court found that Applicant’s
sentences are not running concurrently, as contemplated in the plea agreement. Applicant is entitled
2
to relief. Ex parte Huerta, 692 S.W.2d 681 (Tex. Crim. App. 1985).
Relief is granted. The judgments in Cause No. 2010-667-C1 in the 19th District Court of
McLennan County are set aside, and Applicant is remanded to the custody of the Sheriff of
McLennan County to answer the charges as set out in the indictments. The trial court shall issue any
necessary bench warrant within 10 days after the mandate of this Court issues.
Copies of this opinion shall be sent to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice–Correctional
Institutions Division and Pardons and Paroles Division.
Delivered: October 30, 2013
