IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. WR-85,119-01
EX PARTE FRANK PINES, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 1088871-A IN THE 232ND DISTRICT COURT
FROM HARRIS 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 possession of
cocaine.
Applicant contends that newly discovered laboratory analysis in this case reflects that he did
not possess any controlled substance. Applicant’s claim is supported by the habeas record, and the
State and the trial court agree that Applicant is entitled to habeas relief. See Ex parte Mable, 443
S.W.3d 129 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014).
2
Relief is granted. The judgment in Cause No. 1088871 in the 232nd District Court of Harris
County is set aside, and Applicant is remanded to the custody of the Sheriff of Harris County to
answer the charges as set out in the information. 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.
