        On June 26, 2014, "Respondent" filed the· "Relator's" [Motion

 Relator a file-s.tamped cover'letter concerning this filing. See:
 "EXHIBIT'# 8" On May 18 ~- 201'5, the "Relator" mailed' the "Respondent"
 a "Notice of intent to file. a writ o'f mandamus. in regards to application
 of writ of habeas corpus''"that was;mailed to his office. See:

                                 art. _ ll.07 __ -~3(b)_-

       The "Relator'-'.c asserts that the "Respondent" had a ministerial
duty to file the "Relator's" amended/supplemented -habeas application.
Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. .11.07 §3(b}; Aranda v •..., Di'st.Cferk,Gaines
County,_ 207 S.W.3d 785(Tex.Crim.App,. 2006); Deleon                     v.. Dist.    Clerk,
Lynn County, 187 S.W.3d            473~   474 (Tex. ,Crim •. App . 2006) Because the
"'Relator" has no right to appeaL the "Responden.t' s" refusal to
properly 'f i'le his "amended/supplemented" .·hab-eas application, new
memorandum of law, with -(8) eight new exhibits, and have his exhibits
 that were attached to his prior application included with his new
filings, "Relator" has no remedy at law.
       The "Relator" wrote the "Respondent"· multiple times request-
ing that his new application and filings be assigned a. cause number,
if needed,· and forwarded:to the trial court for consideration. The
"Relator" indicated in his letters thBt· he did not wish for his
filings to be construed as a s1:1bsequent writ: but as an application
where he has stated all of the facts supporting his grourtds.
       In essence, 'the "Relator" requested that .his amended/supplemented
writ of habeas       ~orpus    be filed whi.le .his tither writ concerning the
 same cause was/is pending bef:c;>re the Court.

                                              (3)
   The "Relator" r.ecognized the deficiencies in his initial
application and brief on file while working pro se and sought to
correct his· mistakes pro se. The "Relator". relied on Trevino v.
Thaler:,: a· Supreme Court case as grounds in support of allowing
him to amend/supplement his application. The "Relator's" motion
to amend/supplement was attached to ·his .cover.' letter. See cover
letter: "Exhibit # 8"
   :. The· ''Relator" has received. no response            i'ndm.c'a'.t:~ng   :that his
new filings were ever filed,. assigned a new. number, if needed, or
that they=were ever forwarded··to the trial court or to this

     According to Benson   :V·.   ·!District Clerk,. Montgomery:              County~

331 S.W.3d 431 (Tex. Crim. App. 2011):

       RE: Notice of intent to file a writ of mandamus in regards to
           application of writ of habeas corpus mailed to your aqdress.

       Dear Clerk:
           This letter is being sent as a notice of intent to file an

       application for a writ of mandamus with   th~   Texas Court of Criminal

       Appeals.

           "The Court of Criminal Appeals has exclusive jurisdiction to
            grant relief on matters pertaining to a pending post-
            conviction habeas corpus application relating to a final
            conviction." See Padieu v. Court of Appeals of Texas .. Fifth
            Dist .. 392 S.W.3d 115. 117-118 (Tex.Crim.Ap6. 2013); Tex.
            Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 11.07 (West Supp. 2014 ·
            The "Relator" was convicted of aggravated robbery and sentenced

       to forty years imprisonment in the 179th District Court from
       Harris County in cause no. 1097497. The Relator's initial post

       conviction application for Writ of Habeas Corpus was received and
       filed on 9-28-11 and assigned number 1097497-A.
            On or about November 2nd, 2013, the Relator mailed your office

       an amended/supplemented writ of habeas corpus , memorandum of law,

       (8) eight new exhibits [attached]. Relator received his certified

       return receipt indicating that mail addressed to you from the
       Relator was received on November 6. 2013 and signed by an

       " Arthur Simpson".
                                      (1)
     The Relator has written you multiple times requesting that
his new application and filings be assigned a cause number if need
be and foward it to the trial court for consideration. The Relator

has indicated in his letters that he does riot wish for the Court

to construe this application as a subsequent writ, but as a
compliant application where he has stated all of his grounds

supporting his claims that he wishes the Court to consider.

     The Relator has stated in his letteres addressed to you that
he wishes to proceed with the new habeas application, memorandum

of law, and eight exhibits (attached), and requested to have included
"exhibits [A, B, C, & D) that were attached to his filings on 9-28-

11. The Relator submitted his "declaration" with his letters to

you attesting/swearing/declaring under the penalty of perjury that
these new pleadings filed are true and correct to the best of the

Relator's knowledge.

     In essence, the Relator requested that you file his new writ

of habeas corpus while his other habeas corpus application concern-

ing the same cause is pending in this Court. The Relator recognized

the deficiencies in his initial application and brief on file and
sought to correct his mistakes while filing pro se.

     The Relator has received no response indicating that these new

filings were ever filed, assigned a new cause number if necessary,
that they were forwarded to the trial court or to the Texas Court

of Criminal Appeals.
    According to Benson v. District Clerk. Montgomery County,

331 S.W.3d 431 (Tex.Crim.App. 2011):

    "Whether a habeas corpus applicant has other applications
    pending is irrelevant to the district clerk's duty to receive,
    file, and foward habeas corpus applications under Article 11.07"
    Id. at 432
                                 (2)
     Relator asserts   this duty exists under Tex. Code Grim. Proc.
art. 11.07. §3(b). If these filings are not to be assigned a new

case number because of some operating pr6cedures in your department,
then these filings should have still been brought to the Court's

attention for a response or forwarded to the Court of Criminal

Appeals.
     The Court of Criminal Appeals will grant relief when a relator

shows:
     "(1) that the act;~ought to be compelled is purely ministerial
     and (2) that there is no adequate remedy at law." Winters v.
     Presidin Jud e of the Grim. Dist. No. Three, 118 S.W.3d 773,
     775 Tex.Crim. App. 2003
     In Relator's case, the Harris County District Clerk has a
ministerial duty to file Relator's habeas application. Tex. Code
Grim. Proc. art. 11.07, § 3(b); Aranda v. Dist.Clerk, Gaines County,

207 S.W.3d 785 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006); Deleon v. Dist. Clerk,Lynn County.

187 S.W.3d 473.474 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006) Because Relator has no

right to appeal the District Clerk's refusal to file his habeas

application. Relator has no   r~medy   at law.
     The Relator will file his mandamus with the Court of Criminal
Appeals in (21) twenty-one days if the Relator receives no response

concerning these issues that are being brought to your attention.

                                                 Respectfully submitted.
