Freeman, Anthony Ray v. State

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas August 12, 2016 No. 04-92-00584-CR Freeman, Anthony RAY, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 25th Judicial District Court, Guadalupe County, Texas Trial Court No. 91-1408-CR Honorable Fred Moore, Judge Presiding ORDER Appellant has filed a pro se motion requesting a copy of his trial transcripts filed in this appeal. Appellant appears to be requesting these record for purposes of pursuing a post- conviction writ of habeas corpus. In order to obtain a free copy of the record, appellant would need to file a motion requesting the record in the trial court in which the conviction was obtained and demonstrate that his post-conviction claim is not frivolous and that the record is needed to decide the issues presented. See United States v. MacCollom, 426 U.S. 317, 326 (1976); Escobar v. State, 880 S.W.2d 782, 783 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1993, no pet.). Appellant’s motion is DENIED without prejudice to seeking relief in the proper court. _________________________________ Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the said court on this 12th day of August, 2016. ___________________________________ Keith E.
