             IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
                         OF TEXAS
                                 NOS. AP-76,096 & AP-76,097



                       EX PARTE KASY LEE MOSLEY, Applicant



         ON APPLICATIONS FOR WRITS OF HABEAS CORPUS
   CAUSE NOS. 915839-A AND 915838-A IN THE 178 TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
                   COURT FROM HARRIS COUNTY



        Per curiam.

                                           OPINION

        Pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, the

clerk of the trial court transmitted to this Court this application for writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte

Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant pleaded guilty to one charge of

robbery and one multiple-count charge of aggravated sexual assault, and was sentenced by a jury to

twenty years’ imprisonment for the robbery, and twenty-five years’ imprisonment for the aggravated

sexual assaults. The Fourteenth Court of Appeals affirmed his convictions and sentences. Mosley

v. State, Nos. 14-03-01247-CR and 14-03-01248-CR (Tex. App. – Houston [14th Dist.] May 17,

2005, pet. ref’d).
                                                                                                     2

       Applicant contends, inter alia, that his trial counsel both in his original sentencing trial and

on re-trial rendered ineffective assistance. Applicant alleges that his first counsel disclosed

Applicant’s birth records, school records, and psychological reports to the trial court without

Applicant’s permission, in violation of the attorney-client privilege. After his first punishment trial

resulted in a hung jury and mistrial, Applicant had a re-trial on punishment, at which the prosecution

used the contents of the records to impeach Applicant. Applicant’s counsel for the re-trial was not

aware that the records had been provided to the trial court by Applicant’s first counsel, and was not

aware that the prosecution had obtained copies of those records from the trial court. Re-trial counsel

did not file a pre-trial motion for discovery of extraneous offense/ bad act evidence, and did not file

a motion to suppress or a motion in limine to prevent the introduction of such evidence. Re-trial

counsel did not timely object when the prosecutor began to cross-examine Applicant using the

records.

       The trial court has determined that Applicant’s first counsel’s conduct in disclosing the

records to the court without Applicant’s understanding of the contents of those records was deficient.

The trial court has also determined that Applicant’s re-trial counsel’s conduct in failing to determine

that the State had the records in question, failing to file a motion to suppress or a motion in limine,

and failing to timely object to the prosecutor’s use of the records to cross-examine Applicant was

deficient. The trial court finds that but for the errors of both counsel with regard to these records,

there is a reasonable probability that the outcome of the punishment trial on re-trial would have been

different. We find, therefore, that Applicant is entitled to a new determination of punishment in

these causes. The sentences in Cause Nos. 915839-A and 915838-A from the 178th Judicial District

Court of Harris County are reversed, and the matters are remanded to the trial court for a new trial

on punishment.
