NO. WR-68,868-01

EX PARTE IVAN REED, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

FROM TARRANT COUNTY

Johnson, J., filed a concurring statement.

C O N C U R R I N G S T A T E M E N T



I concur in the denial of this application for writ of habeas corpus on its merits. However, I note that applicant complains that his attorney failed to inform him of an alleged recantation by the complaining witness, while the various affidavits instead address complaints that were not raised by applicant: the applicant's counsel failed to introduce the alleged recantation at trial and that, because the alleged recantation was known to applicant's wife, it should be assumed that applicant also knew of it. I remind the criminal bar that providing sufficient information in relation to the complaints raised by an applicant is very helpful to this court in making its decision.
