Estridge, Robert Lynn

IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. WR-90,370-01
EX PARTE ROBERT LYNN ESTRIDGE, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 114-1129-18 IN THE 114TH DISTRICT COURT
FROM SMITH COUNTY
Per curiam.
ORDER
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 a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte
Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant pleaded guilty to driving while
intoxicated in exchange for a twenty-five year sentence. He did not appeal.
After a review of the records, we find that Applicant's claims alleging ineffective assistance
of trial counsel challenging the voluntariness of his plea are without merit. Therefore, we deny
relief. Applicant's remaining claim concerning the denial of pre-sentencing jail time credit is
dismissed. Ex parte Ybarra, 149 S.W.3d 147 (Tex. Crim. App. 2004) (Where an inmate seeks
pre-sentence jail time credit, "[t]he appropriate remedy in this situation is to require Applicant to
2
present the issue to the trial court by way of a nunc pro tunc motion, . . . [and] [i]f the trial court fails
to respond, Applicant is first required to seek relief in the Court of Appeals, by way of a petition for
a writ of mandamus, unless there is a compelling reason not to do .")
