v.

 203RD DISTRICT COURT, Respondent





ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS
CAUSE NO. W97-00134-9(A)

FROM DALLAS COUNTY



 Per curiam.

O R D E R


	Relator has filed a motion for leave to file a writ of mandamus pursuant to the original
jurisdiction of this Court.  In it, he contends that he filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus
in the 203rd District Court of Dallas County, that more than 35 days have elapsed, and that the
application  has not yet been forwarded to this Court. Relator contends that the district court entered
an order designating issues on November 4, 2005.
	 In these circumstances, additional facts are needed.  The respondent, the judge of the 203rd
District Court of Dallas County, is ordered to file a response with this Court by having the District
Clerk submit the records on such habeas corpus applications or by setting out the reasons that no
findings have been made since the order designating issues was entered.  This application for leave
to file a writ of mandamus will be held in abeyance until the respondent has submitted the
appropriate response.  Such response shall be submitted within 30 days of the date of this order.
