IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NOS. WR-94,948-01 WR-94,948-02 EX PARTE SAMUEL CAROTHERS, Applicant ON APPLICATIONS FOR WRITS OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NOS. D-1-DC-20-300071 & D-1-DC-21-301198 IN THE 147TH DISTRICT COURT FROM TRAVIS COUNTY Per curiam. OPINION Applicant was convicted of two offenses of assault and sentenced to five years’ imprisonment in each case. Applicant filed these applications for writs of habeas corpus in the county of conviction, and the district clerk forwarded them to this Court. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. art. 11.07. Applicant contends that his guilty pleas were involuntary because the plea agreements were conditioned on his state and federal sentences running concurrently. Based on the record, the trial court has determined that Applicant is not receiving credit on his federal sentence and that his plea agreements were conditioned on his state and federal sentences running concurrently. 2 Relief is granted.
