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 murder and sentenced to eighteen years imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction. Applicant contends that counsel rendered his plea involuntary. On February 8, 2012, we remanded this application for further findings of fact and conclusions of law.

The trial court recommended that we grant relief. Relief is granted. The judgment in cause number 912448 in the 228th District 2 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 indictment.
