RE: Notice of intent to file a writ of mandamus in regards to application of writ of habeas corpus mailed to your aqdress.
Dear Clerk: This letter is being sent as a notice of intent to file an application for a writ of mandamus with**th~** Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. "The Court of Criminal Appeals has exclusive jurisdiction to

grant relief on matters pertaining to a pending postconviction habeas corpus application relating to a final conviction." See Padieu v. Court of Appeals of Texas
.. Fifth Dist

.. 392 S.W.3d 115. 117-118 (Tex.Crim.Ap6. 2013); Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 11.07 (West Supp. 2014 · The "Relator" was convicted of aggravated robbery and sentenced to forty years imprisonment in the 179th District Court from Harris County in cause no. 1097497. The Relator's initial post conviction application for Writ of Habeas Corpus was received and filed on 9-28-11 and assigned number 1097497-A. On or about November 2nd, 2013, the Relator mailed your office
an amended/supplemented writ of habeas corpus , memorandum of law, (8) eight new exhibits [attached]. Relator received his certified return receipt indicating that mail addressed to you from the Relator was received on November 6. 2013 and signed by an " Arthur Simpson". (1)The Relator has written you multiple times requesting that his new application and filings be assigned a cause number if need be and foward it to the trial court for consideration. The Relator has indicated in his letters that he does riot wish for the Court to construe this application as a subsequent writ, but as a compliant application where he has stated all of his grounds supporting his claims that he wishes the Court to consider. The Relator has stated in his letteres addressed to you that he wishes to proceed with the new habeas application, memorandum of law, and eight exhibits (attached), and requested to have included "exhibits [A, B, C, 

### & D) that were attached to his filings on 9-28- 11. The Relator submitted his "declaration" with his letters to you attesting/swearing/declaring under the penalty of perjury that these new pleadings filed are true and correct to the best of the Relator's knowledge. In essence, the Relator requested that you file his new writ of habeas corpus while his other habeas corpus application concerning the same cause is pending in this Court. The Relator recognized the deficiencies in his initial application and brief on file and sought to correct his mistakes while filing pro se. The Relator has received no response indicating that these new filings were ever filed, assigned a new cause number if necessary, that they were forwarded to the trial court or to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. According to Benson v. District Clerk. Montgomery County, 331 S.W.3d 431 (Tex.Crim.App. 2011): "Whether a habeas corpus applicant has other applications pending is irrelevant to the district clerk's duty to receive, file, and foward habeas corpus applications under Article 11.07" Id. at 432 (2)Relator asserts this duty exists under Tex. Code Grim. Proc. art. 11.07. §3(b). If these filings are not to be assigned a new
case number because of some operating pr6cedures in your department, then these filings should have still been brought to the Court's attention for a response or forwarded to the Court of Criminal Appeals. The Court of Criminal Appeals will grant relief when a relator shows: "(1) that the**act;~ought** to be compelled is purely ministerial and (2) that there is no adequate remedy at law." Winters v. Presidin Jud e of the Grim. Dist. No. Three, 118 S.W.3d 773, 775 Tex.Crim. App. 2003 In Relator's case, the Harris County District Clerk has a ministerial duty to file Relator's habeas application. Tex. Code Grim. Proc. art. 11.07, § 3(b); Aranda v. Dist.Clerk, Gaines County, 207 S.W.3d 785 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006); Deleon v. Dist. Clerk,Lynn County. 187 S.W.3d 473.474 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006) Because Relator has no right to appeal the District Clerk's refusal to file his habeas application. Relator has no**r~medy** at law. The Relator will file his mandamus with the Court of Criminal Appeals in (21) twenty-one days if the Relator receives no response concerning these issues that are being brought to your attention. Respectfully submitted.
