W92-67691-MN(C) IN THE 195th DISTRICT COURT FROM DALLAS 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 aggravated sexual assault and sentenced to twenty-five years’ imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction.

The trial court, based upon the record, recommends relief be granted. We agree. See Ex parte Robbins, WR-73,484-02, ___ S.W.3d___ (Tex. Crim. App. Nov. 26, 2014). 2 Relief is granted. The judgment in Cause No. F92-67691-MN in the 195th District Court of Dallas County is set aside, and Applicant is remanded to the custody of the Sheriff of Dallas County to answer the charges as set out in the indictment.
