IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-83,722-01 EX PARTE KEITH ALLEN GOLDEN II, Applicant ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 15-01-00374-CR-(1) IN THE 410TH DISTRICT COURT FROM MONTGOMERY 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). In count one of this cause, Applicant was convicted of possession of a controlled substance in an amount of more than one gram but less than four grams, and was sentenced to two years’ imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction. Applicant contends that his plea was involuntary and that his conviction violates due process because after he entered his plea, the evidence in his case was tested and found to weigh less than one gram. 2 The parties have entered agreed findings of fact and conclusions of law, and the trial court has determined that Applicant’s decision to plead guilty in this case was not a voluntary and intelligent choice. Applicant is entitled to relief. Ex parte Mable, 443 S.W.3d 129 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014). Relief is granted. Count one of the judgment in Cause No. 15-01-00374-CR in the 410th District Court of Montgomery County is set aside, and Applicant is remanded to the custody of the Sheriff of Montgomery County to answer the charges as set out in the indictment. 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. Delivered: December 16, 2015 Do not publish
