                        -------------------------------




Board of Directors and Stockholders
WVS Financial Corporation

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of WVS Financial
Corporation and subsidiary as of December 31, 2001, and the related consolidated
statements of income for the three month and six month periods ended December
31, 2001 and 2000, the consolidated statement of changes in stockholders' equity
for the six month period ended December 31, 2001, and the consolidated statement
of cash flows for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2001 and 2000. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet as of
June 30, 2001, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented
herein); and in our report dated July 20, 2001, we expressed an unqualified
opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

BEAUMONT DIVISION

ROCKY ALLEN WILSON § 

VS. § CIVIL ACTION NO. 1:23-CV-28

DIRECTOR, TDCJ-CID §

MEMORANDUM OPINION REGARDING TRANSFER

Petitioner Rocky Allen Wilson, an inmate confined at the LeBlanc Unit of the Texas

Department of Criminal Justice, Correctional Institutions Division, proceeding pro se, brings this

Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254.

The Petition was referred to the undersigned magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636

for findings of fact, conclusions of law, and recommendations for the disposition of the case.

Discussion 

Title 28 U.S.C. § 2254(a) allows a district court to “entertain an application for a writ of

habeas corpus on behalf of a person in custody pursuant to the judgment of a State court only on 

the ground that he is in custody in violation of the Constitution or laws or treaties of the United 

States.” 28 U.S.C. § 2254(a). A state prisoner is required to file his federal petition for writ of 

habeas corpus in either the district where the prisoner is incarcerated or the district where the 

prisoner was convicted and sentenced. 28 U.S.C. § 2241(d). Although both district courts have 

jurisdiction to entertain the application, “[t]he district court for the district wherein such an 

application is filed, in the exercise of its discretion and in furtherance of justice, may transfer the 

application to the other district court for hearing and determination.” Id.

Case 4:23-cv-00081-SDJ-KPJ Document 2 Filed 01/30/23 Page 1 of 2 PageID #: 21
Petitioner filed this Petition in the Beaumont Division of the Eastern District of Texas.

However, Petitioner was convicted and sentenced in Hopkins County, which is located in the

Sherman Division. 

The court has considered the circumstances and has determined that the interests of justice

would be served if this Petition were transferred to the division where Petitioner was convicted and

sentenced. Therefore, the Petition should be transferred to the Sherman Division for hearing and

determination. It is accordingly

ORDERED that this Petition is TRANSFERRED to the Sherman Division of the United

States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.

IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA

No. 20-0156

Filed August 4, 2021

STATE OF IOWA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

vs.

SHANE MICHAEL DAVIS,

Defendant-Appellant.

________________________________________________________________

Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Floyd County, DeDra Schroeder,

Judge.

Shane Davis appeals following a guilty plea. APPEAL DISMISSED.

Thomas M. McIntee, Waterloo, for appellant.

Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, and Israel Kodiaga, Assistant Attorney 

General, for appellee.

Considered by Doyle, P.J., and Mullins and May, JJ.

MAY, Judge.

Shane Davis appeals after pleading guilty to lascivious acts with a child and 

indecent contact with a child. 

We begin by considering whether we have authority to hear Davis’s appeal. 

Under Iowa Code section 814.6(1)(a)(3) (2020), there is no right of appeal “from

. . . [a] conviction where the defendant has pled guilty.” This does not apply, 

however, “to a guilty plea for a class ‘A’ felony or in a case where the defendant 

establishes good cause.” Iowa Code § 814.6(1)(a)(3) (emphasis added). But 

there is no class “A” felony at issue here. And Davis has not addressed good 

cause, although it is his burden to establish it. See id.; State v. Damme, 944 

N.W.2d 98, 104 (Iowa 2020) (“Damme bears the burden of establishing good 

cause to pursue an appeal of her conviction based on a guilty plea.”).1

Because Davis has not “establishe[d] good cause,” he has no right of 

appeal. Iowa Code § 814.6(1)(a)(3). We must dismiss.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

 

1 We note Davis had notice of the good-cause requirement—both through 

enactment of section 814.6(1)(a)(3) and the many judicial opinions interpreting it—

as well as an opportunity to be heard through his appellate brief. Section 

814.6(1)(a)(3) has been effective since July 1, 2019. Damme, 944 N.W.2d at 103 

(discussing 2019 Iowa Acts ch. 140, § 28 (codified at Iowa Code § 814.6(1)(a) 

(2020)). Davis did not file his brief until December 2, 2020. By then, our appellate 

courts had issued several opinions interpreting section 814.6(1)(a)(3). See, e.g., 

State v. Thompson, 951 N.W.2d 1, 2 (Iowa 2020); Damme, 944 N.W.2d at 103–

05; State v. Draine, 936 N.W.2d 205, 206 (Iowa 2019); State v. Castorena, No. 19-

1652, 2020 WL 6157797, at *1 n.1 (Iowa Ct. App. Oct. 21, 2020); State v. Nunez 

Cabara, No. 19-2058, 2020 WL 5650606, at *1 (Iowa Ct. App. Sept. 23, 2020); 

State v. Harden, No. 19-0442, 2020 WL 4814085, at *1 n.2 (Iowa Ct. App. Aug. 

19, 2020).
