Texas v. Reyes (original by presiding judge keller)
Annotate this CaseAppellee Juan Reyes petitioned for habeas relief, attacking a judgment that imposed community supervision. In support of his application, appellee raised five grounds. Evidence supporting all of these grounds was submitted in either affidavit form or through witnesses at a live hearing. The trial court granted relief on the first ground and did not address the remaining four grounds. Holding that the trial court erred in granting relief on the first ground, the court of appeals reversed the trial court’s judgment and rendered judgment reinstating the guilty plea. The Court of Criminal Appeals concluded that the court of appeals should have remanded the case to the trial court to resolve appellee’s remaining claims. Consequently, it reversed the judgment of the court of appeals and remanded the case to the trial court for further proceedings.
