Gormley, Martin

IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. WR-91,832-01
EX PARTE MARTIN GORMLEY, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 1469800-A IN THE 184TH DISTRICT COURT
FROM HARRIS COUNTY
Per curiam.
OPINION
Applicant was convicted of super-aggravated sexual assault of a child and sentenced to forty-
four years’ imprisonment. The First Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction. Gormley v. State, No.
01-16-00717-CR (Tex. App.—Nov. 16, 2017) (not designated for publication). Applicant filed this
application for a writ of habeas corpus in the county of conviction, and the district clerk forwarded
it to this Court. See TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC . art. 11.07.
In a single ground, Applicant contends that he was denied his right to file a petition for
discretionary review (PDR). The trial court made findings of fact and conclusions of law but did not
determine whether Applicant was entitled to an out-of-time PDR. Based on the totality of the record,
we conclude that Applicant is entitled to an out-of-time PDR.
