Dear Mr.   Acosta,   Appeal   ~~erk:

     On January 5, 2015, the State'•s Proposed Findings
of fact, conclusions of law and order was filed with the
court. In that same Motion, the State claimed the motion
was sent to the Court of Criminal Appeal;

     Here it is February 23, 2015, and I haven'•t received
a "White Card" from the Court of Criminal Appeal informing
me th~t the writ was now pending in that court.

      I understand.to gain ~ome time the court entered order
extending the statuto~y time limits a practice condemned
in .McCree v. Hampton, 824 s. w. 2d. 578 (Tex. Cr; App. 1992).
However, that case sat out a method whereby the trial court
can either on motion of the State or its own initiative,
gain more ~ime to investigate the allegations raised within
a writ application.

     If the trial court selects this option but fails to
notify the Court of Crimin~l Appeals ~nd enquiry is made
to the Court without mention of the previously entered
order designating issue a "delayed writ letter" may well
be sent to the trial court with copies to the District
clerk and district attorney enquiring into the alleged delay.

     I hereby request that you conduct a investigation into
these matters and order the files to those findings ~nd
transmit them along with the writ transcript to the Clerk
of the Court of Criminal Appeals as required,by law.

                                   -1-
