NO. 61,656-03

---

DION MCLENDON, Relator

v.

THE DISTRICT CLERK OF TRAVIS COUNTY, Respondent

---

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS

FROM TRAVIS COUNTY

---

   The order was delivered per curiam.



O R D E R

This is an original application for a writ of mandamus.

Relator contends the State submitted the affidavit of Keith Hottle of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles with its answer to Relator's second application for a writ of habeas corpus in the 147th Judicial District Court of Travis County, but that he has not received a copy of the affidavit as required by Article 11.07, § 7, V.A.C.C.P. Relator's contentions present a colorable claim.

It is this Court's opinion that additional information is required before a decision can be reached. Therefore, the respondent, District Clerk of Travis County, is ordered to file with this Court within thirty days a response by stating whether the record contains a copy of the affidavit of Keith Hottle, and whether a copy of the affidavit has been forwarded to Relator.

IT IS SO ORDERED this the 18th day of October, 2006.
