Applicant's contention in raising and addressing he is entitled to pre-
sentence and jail time credit is not a frivoloious issue presented to the
court in light of §§ngjy;_§g£§y, 115 S.Ct. 2021(1995>, this applicant is
entitled to credit on his sentence for anytime spent in custody in connection
with the offense. n rt l

Applicant present.the judge's judgment and committment order,-it clearly
do not show applicant credit.for the date of arrest in 1992 and or anyother
true prior to 1996., Applicant extridicted to Texas on a Governor}s warrant
on two separate occassion the credit is not shown for which he is entitled
as a matter of law.

Applicant is made to suffer violation of his rights vested by the State
of Texas, where the pre-sentence jail time credit entitled he will not be_
credited with his street time that will afford his sentence be completed
.dn Stember 1996.' The sentence served will€be an unconstitutional imposedr
sentence served by applicant. l

The filing of the writ application seeks to have the Court to intervene

 

and protect his constitutional rights. See, For discussion of credt for tmmm
served for offenses committment under the indictment. Gredit for time served

For the foregoing reasons, this Honorable Court should overrule State s
