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 these applications for writs of habeas corpus. Ex
parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of theft in ten
cause numbers and sentenced to two years’ state jail imprisonment in each cause. Some of the
sentences are to be served consecutively. She did not appeal her convictions.
Applicant contends that her plea was involuntary because trial counsel informed her that she
would be eligible for parole on all her cases after serving two years. She alleges that she would not
