IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-80,188-05 EX PARTE KEVERY RAYNARD WILSON, Applicant ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 114-0164-13-B IN THE 114TH DISTRICT COURT FROM SMITH 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 evading arrest or detention with a vehicle and sentenced to forty years’ imprisonment as a habitual felon. Applicant contends, inter alia, that his appellate counsel rendered ineffective assistance because counsel failed to challenge the imposition of a $5000 fine. The trial court finds, “The $5,000 fine imposed in Cause Number 114-0164-13 was not authorized by section 12.42(d) of the Texas Penal Code and should be deleted from the judgment. ... [The trial court] recommends the 2 Court of Criminal Appeals grant relief and vacate the portion of the Cause Number 114-0164-13 judgment that assesses a fine.” The finding and recommendation are supported by the habeas record forwarded to this Court. We hold that the $5000 fine imposed in cause no. 114-0164-13, The State of Texas v. Kevery Raynard Wilson, from the 114th District Court of Smith County is vacated. A review of Applicant’s remaining claims shows that they lack merit. These claims are denied, and the forty-year sentence imposed by the trial court remains unchanged. Copies of this opinion shall be sent to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Correctional Institutions Division and Pardons and Paroles Division. Delivered: June 29, 2016 Do not publish
