3.
Court of Appeals have the Power to compel a trial Court to rule on pending

In re Ramirez, 994 s.w. 2d 682,684(Tex.App~San Antonio 1998,0rig.Proceeding);
Before Mandamus may issue to require a trial court to rule on a Motion,the
Relator. must Establish that. the Court. was asked to perform the act and failed

Relator Petition Should be grant because he have no adequate remedy to address
any errors.
To be entitled to Mandamus Relief in a Criminal case,a relator must show,
amony other things,that he has no adequate remedy at law redress the alleged
harm.
Ex Rel.Young V. Sixth Judicial Dist Court Of appeals at Texarkana,
236 S.W. 3d 207,20l(Tex.Crim.App.(2007);
"A Court with Mandamus authority will grant Mandamus relief if relator can
demonstrate that. the act sought to be compelled is purely Ministerial and
that relator has no other adequate legal remedy~ In re Piper,l05 S.W. 3d -
107,109(Tex.App.Waco (2003),0rig.Proceeding)(quoting State ex rel.Rosenthal-
V. Poe,98 S.W. 3d l94,197-99(Tex.Crim.App.2003)(0rig.Proceeding)).
But Consideration of a Motion Property filed and before the Court is Minist-
erial.State ex rel.
Hill V. Ct.of Apps.for the 5th Dist,34 s.w. 3d 924,927(Tex.Crim.App.(200l)
(Orig.Proceeding).
Mandamus may issue to compel a trial Court to rule on a Motion which has been
pending before the court for a reasonable period of time.
See In re Hearm,l37 S.W. 3d 681,685(Tex.App •. -San Antonio (2004,0rig.Proceeding

2006,0rig.Proceeding) .. To. abtain Mandamus relief for such refusal,a relator
must establish:(l) The Motion was Properly filed and has been Pending for a
reasonable time;(2) the relator requested a ruling on .the Motion;and(3)
The trial court refused to rule.See Hearn,l37 S.W. 3d at 685;Keeter,l34 S.W.-
3d at 252;Chavez,62 S.W. 3d at 228;Barnes,832 S.W. 2d at 426;See also Shre-

"A trial judge has a.reasonable time to perform the ministerial duty of
considering and ruling on a motion properly filed and before the judge.
Chavez,62 s.w. 3d at 228.
·Moore bears the burden.of providing this Court with a sufficient record to
establish his right to mandamus relief.

Points Of Law In General·
28 U.S.C. § 2254(d) an adjudication Properly on the Merits occure when the
state court resolves the case on substantive grounds rather than on proced-
ural grounds held Mercadel V. Cani,l79 F.3d 271,273(5th Cir.(l999) Quoting
Fisher V. Texas,l69 F.3d 295,300(5th Cir.l999) Finding that where a State
Habeas Court decided the Habeas Applicant Claim on Procedural grounds,there
has not been an adjuication on the merits Valdez v. Cockrell,274 F. 3d 941
(5th Cir.2001).
5th,l4th amend Due Process.
This Court should Grant Relator's Petition For Writ Of Mandamus For the
Following reasons:
1. The trial court failed or refused to rule within a reasonable time on
the following:
2. Motion For Leave OF Court And
3. First Motion For Supplemental Application For Writ OF Habeas Corpus
Pursuant to Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure.
See Tex.Code Crim.Proc.Ann.Art.ll.07§4.
However,article 11.07 of the Texas Code of criminal Procedure Provides the
exclusive remedy for felony post-Conviction relirf in state Court.
Tex:Code Crim.Proc.Ann.Art.ll.07 § 5; See also Ater V. Eighth Court of Appeals
802 s.vv. 2d 241,243(Tex.Crim.App.(l991).
And the purpose of the subsequent bar is to limit a Convicted p::rson to"one,
bite at the apple'!.Ex Parte Whieside,l2 S.W. 3d 819,82l(Tex.Crim.App.(2000).
Therefore,Relator have no adequate remedy at law to raise his Claim that
the trial Court lacked Jurisdiction to anend .the Indictment On July 19,1988.
Relator Moore shouldnow gain the benefit of raising this issue in this
Petition For Writ OF Mandamus,b2cause (1) He follow the procedure as set
out by Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure for Filing
an Application For Writ of Habeas Corpus.
CONCLUSION AND PRAYER
The issuance of a mandamus is never a matter of right,but rests in the sound
discretion ot the sourt.
Dickens V. Second Court of appeals, 727 S.W.2d 542,549(Tex.Crim.App. (1987) ~ ·
Here,Relator's Petition For Writ Of Mandamus should be Grant because Relator
have demonstr~te that the trial court erred by not rule on the Pending Motions
that was file On April 13, 2015.

EX PARTE IN THE DISTRICT COURT
MICHAEL ANTHONY MOORE § OF BRAZOS COUNTY,TEXAS
§ 272ND DISTRICT COURT
First Motion For Supplemental Application For ~vrit Of Habeas
Corpus Pursuant To Article 11.07 of
Texas Code Of Criminal Pro'cedure
TO 'l'HE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT:
Now Comes Applicant Michael Anthony Moore by and through his Pro se in the
above numbered and entitled Cause,and· respectfully makes its First Motion
For Supplemental Application For Writ Of Habeas Corpus Pursuant To Article
11.07 of Texas Code Of Criminal Procedure as Follows:
l.
Respondent has Custody of Applicant Pursuant to Judgment and sentence
in Cause No.l7,957-272,entitled the State of Texas VS.Michael Anthony Moore
Wherein Applicant was Convicted of the offense of Burglary of a Building
enhanced)and sentenced to Sixty(60) Years in the (then) Texas Department
of Corrections.
2.
On March 10,2015,Applicant Moore filed his Application for Writ of Habeas
Corpus Pursuant to article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure
alleging that the State failed to Amend the Indictment.
Applicant avers that the State did not file the Mandatory "Motion To Leave"
to Amend the Indictment in Cause no. 17,957-272,to reflect the charge of
Aggravated Sexual Assault With a deadly Weapon and the 2nd Charge of Burglary
of a Building.
The record is "void" of any Motion To Amend or any Waiver of the Indictment. J:h
The State "Illegally Amended" the Original Indictment and thus Combined it
with a document of Information on the same day of Trial,Violating Moore's
Guaranteed Rights of the U.S. Const,Due Process of law,and against U.S.
Supreme Court's Precedents.The instct that the court amended the Indictment,it
lost "Jurisdiction".
Ex Parte Bain, 121 U.S. 1,7 S.Ct.781,30 L.Ed.849(1887);
\vard V. State,829 S.W. 2d 787,793(Tex.Crim.App.(l992);
Page 1.
Page 3
3.
See Tex.Code Crim.Proc.Ann.art.ll.07§4.
The instant Application does allege that the claims contained therein have
not been and could not have been presented in an original application or
that,by a preponderance of the evidence no rational juror could have found
the applicant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt but for a violation of the
United States contitution here,Applicat have now Complied with Article 11.07-
§4.
Ex Parte Evans,964 S.W. 2d 643,647(Tex.Crim.App.(l998);
4.
As Applicant Moore has Acknowledged that the granting of his claims would
result in habeas corpus relief.
Applicant Moore,seeking habeas corpus cernpelling speedier release and a
judicial determination that implies the unlawfulness of the state custody.
5.
To maintain a habeas copus action a petitioner must exhauat his state court
remedies by filing a post-Conviction petition for writ of Habeas Corpus
under Tex.Code Crim.Proc.Ann.art.ll.07(Vernon Supp.(2005).
Therefore,all of applicant Moore's claims should be granted.In the altern-
ative,this court should grant all claims for habeas relief from the Applic-
ation Moore claims for relief.
Pro Se Pleadings are to be reviewed and evaluated by standards less stringent
than those applied to formal pleadings drafted by lawyers.
Moore requests that this court rev1ew his First Motion For Supplemental
Application For Writ Of habeas Corpus Pursuant to Article 11.07 of Texas
Code of criminal Procedure with patience and liberality to determine the
Merits of his claims.In Re Marriage of Buster, 115 S.W.3d at page l44(Te.-
App.Texarkana(2003) (the Level of reasonble diligence for prison inmates is
somewhat lower that for litigants who are free and represented by counsel).
Page 2.

Application Moore with no tools of any kind for checking the authority of
government overseers is not just embedded with value,but it is exemplary,
responding to the highest calling of the legal profession,which is to give
meaning to the term equal justice under law carved in stone on every court-
house.
``EREFORE,premises considered,the Prose prays after notice and hearing the
First Motion For Supplemental Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus Pursuant
to Article 11.07 of Texas Code Of Criminal Procedure as requested.
