Ex parte JAMES ESTES BAKER III (dissenting)
Annotate this CaseIN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. AP-76,627
Ex parte JAMES ESTES BAKER III, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 526054-B IN THE 209TH DISTRICT COURT
FROM HARRIS COUNTY
Keller, P.J., filed a dissenting opinion.
This case is in a confusing procedural posture. The present application was filed in the trial court under the cause number for a kidnapping offense. Applicant has discharged the sentence in the kidnapping case. He is on parole for a separate robbery conviction, and it is to this parole that the complained-of sex-offender conditions are attached.
Because the sentence for the kidnapping offense has been discharged, this application should be dismissed. Applicant should file a habeas application in the robbery case to properly bring his complaint about the sex-offender conditions.
I respectfully dissent.
