MICHAEL WAYNE BOHANNAN v. << (2011)

Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.

Ex parte MICHAEL WAYNE BOHANNAN, Applicant

NO. AP–76,363

Decided: May 11, 2011

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS TARRANT COUNTY

In Ex parte Cordova, a parolee was arrested on a parole revocation warrant, and new criminal charges were pending at the time.¹ There is no suggestion in our opinion in that case that the parolee was being confined on the new charges.² In the present case, however, appellant was being confined on the new charge. Whether that difference between the two cases is legally significant is a question to be resolved at another time because, as the Court correctly points out, this case is moot.
