Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Aranda v. Dist. Clerk, Gaines County, 75,548
Upon application for a writ of mandamus contending that a county district clerk refused to file his application for a writ of habeas corpus, relief is conditionally granted where: 1) relator was not prohibited from filing an application for a writ of habeas corpus with the clerk pursuant to Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.07, and thus, the clerk had a ministerial duty to file the application; and 2) relator had no remedy at law.
