W1211228-Y IN THE CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT NO. 7 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 assault with a deadly weapon and sentenced to fifteen years’ imprisonment. The Sixth Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction. Dominguez v. State, No. 06-13-00164-CR (Tex. App.—Texarkana May 8, 2014) (not designated for publication). Applicant contends that his appellate counsel rendered ineffective assistance because counsel failed to timely notify Applicant that his conviction had been affirmed. 2 The trial court has entered findings of fact and conclusions of law that appellate counsel failed to timely notify Applicant that his conviction had been affirmed. The trial court recommends that relief be granted. Ex parte Wilson, 956 S.W.2d 25 (Tex. Crim. App. 1997). We find, therefore, that Applicant is entitled to the opportunity to file an out-of-time petition for discretionary review of the judgment of the Sixth Court of Appeals in Cause No. 06-13-00164CR that affirmed his conviction in Cause No. F-1211228-Y from the Criminal District Court No. 7 of Dallas County.
