   In reaching this conclusion, In:'McClinton V. State,_ this Honor-

able Court of Criminal Appeals, held that ... "It is well establish-

ed that a trial Court's Oral Pronouncement of Sentence in open

Court is the Sentence imposed. The wriitten judgment or a docket

entty is merely the written            ~ec}aration      and embodiment of the Oral
prbnouncement. Ex patte Madding, 70              s.w.    3d 131, 135 (Tex. Crim.

App. 2002);Coffey       v.    State,    979   s.w.   2d 326, 328). As the Court

of Criminal Appeals, recently,              explain~d::

       "The rationale for that rule is that the imposition
       of sentence is the crucial             mom~nt    when all parties
       are physiea11y presnet at sentencing hearing and able
        to hear and respondGtO the imposition of sentence.
       Once he leaves the court-room, the defendant begins
       serving the sentence. Ex parte Madding, 70                  s.w.    2d
       at 135.     Th~s.     a trial Court does not have the Statu-
        tciry authority to impose           one:sentence·or~lly      to the
       defendant and then at some later date, enter a diff-
       erent, greater or         !esse~     sentence, in his presence,
       in the written judgment outside•the deEendant's or
       State's presence. See Id at 136. Such a system would
       create hovoc; a trial Court judge could orally pro-
       nounce sentence in open court while the defendant and
       his family and friends and             pos~ibl~    victim   ~~~ily       and
       friends,_ and the prosecutor are all present to                    pbj~ct,.

       A defendant who thought he was serve a ten year sen-
       tence would     even~a11y       discover that instend, his sen-

                                        7
        tence has been modified to twelve years, or the State
        would   e~entually    discover that the sentence been modi-
         fied to ten years., such a system would be unfair to
        both parties and to socity at. large. such would inject
        both parties andibtolerable          le~el    of uncertainity into
        the sentence from becoming 0 final 0 until the trial Court';
        plenary authority had expired.n

A trial Court has the inherent authorit¥ to alter, modify, or                     ~ac-

ate its ruling, but it does not have the inherent authority to al-

ter, modify 6r vacate a sentence"tmposed in open court without Sta-

tutory authorization and without the presence of the parties. See

121    s.w.   3d 768, 770-771 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003).

                                      VII

      with the foregoing in mind, as previously demonstrate, and based

oh the records, unequivocally shows that the trial Court [GRANTED]

                       PRELIMINARY STATEMENT OF THE PROCEEDING

   The records reflects Applicant filed an Application for Writ of
Habeas corpus, pursuant to TEX.CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 11.07 {Ver-

non Supp. 2013). On October lS1 2013. It was received and filed in

the Harris county, District Clerk's Office. The Application was ace-
ompanied with numeroGs other      Motion~,   specifically Applicant's 'MO-

TION REFORMATION AGGRAVATED KIDNAPPING JUDGMENT'. However, the         tri~l

Court disposed of the Habeas Corpus' Application as well as each          'Mo~

tion' Applicant d.iscovered that the trial Court Judge was ·not afford-

ed copies of the      'Motion Reformation Aggrava,ted kidnapping Judgment'

and-.the Attached documents •. No-t being pr-esent-ed -to t-he tr-ial Court.

Applicant filed a     'Motion For Leave To file Writ Of Mandamus' to the

Court of Criminal Appeals. And also as a requirement served the Harris

County, District Clerk with a copy of the        'Motion For Leave To file

Writ of Mandamus'. Requesting to the Court Of Criminal Appeals, to

compel the   H~rris   County, District Court to forward .ALL the related.

records of the Habeas Corpus Application proceeding. To complete the

                                  2
before the Court and to      s~rved    the same to the        Ha~ris     County, Dis-

trict   Cl~rk.    Because pursuant to     Tex.R~     App.    Proc. SO(b)("the burden

is on the   Ap~licant'to    make sure the records are tomp}ete before the

Court"). However, the Application for Writ of                H~baeas     Corpus was den-

ied without a written ouder. There after the 'Motion                    for~Leave   to:~fi~e

gestion for Reconsideration'. also was denied. On January 14, 2014. The

~~mo0adum   Response to ·corresporice'was received by the trial Court

Obviously the·irial Court Judge was afforded a proper review of the

'Motion' with the records appended.            tri~l   Court Granted Applicant's
'Motion Reformation Aggravated Kidnapping Judgment'. The trial Court

entered an Order On April 21, 2014. Other:•PLEASE ATTACHED A COPY OF
THE CORRECTED JUDGMENT AND SENTENCE. ALSO OUR RECORDS HAVE BEEN COR-
                                           '
RECTED TO REFLECT 2ND      DEG~EE    FELONY-AGGRAVATED KIDNAPPING REDEASE;VIC-
TIM IN A SAFE PLACE."
                              (Emphasis added)

   The record reflects that Applicant [NO-LONGER] convicted of the Fe-

lony offense ['First Degree         Ag~~av~ted     Kidnapping']. This Order         refer~

red to was after the disposition of the initial Application -for Writ

of Habeas Corpus' .By Both Cpurts'.        ~he     trial Court On November 12,

2013. arnd the court of Criminal Appeals, On January 8, 2014. On April

14, 2014.       The Harris County, Disttict        Cl~rk's    Office-R~tention      Corres-

pondence received Applicant's         'Motion    Refp~mation         Aggravated Kidnapping

Judgment'. The trial Court On•. Apri-l         2J,i.o2014i;,~_well   after Applicant filed

the initial Application· for writ of Habeas             corpus.~.·

   Article 11.07, §4, permits the consideration of a                   subs~quent   appli-

catioon for writ of habeas corpus, only under exceptional circumstances:

   ~a)'If   a subsequent application for writtof habeas corpus is filed
after   f~nal   disposition of an initial application challenging the same
conviction, a court may not consider the metter of or grant relief based
6ri th~ subsequent applicat1."on, unless, th e application contains

                                                                           :00029-
                                          -.
suffi~ient    specific facts establishing that:

     (!)'The current claims and issues have not been and could not
     been presented previously in a original application or in a pre-
     vious considered application filed under this article because the
     factual or legal basis for the claim was unavailable on the date
     applicant filed the previous application; •..

     (c)'For purpose of subsection {a)(l), a factual basis of claims is

available on or before a date described by              ~   ·:sabsect ion (a) ( 1), if the

factual basis 1 was: not assertainable through the              exerci~e   of reasonable

diligence or before that date.

     Thus, reaching this conclusion'that, Applicant is entitled to have

the merits of this Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus consideration

because·· as Applicant pres en ts•. by the. preponderance of the factual ·1 eg-

al   basis was unavailable at the time of the initial filed Application

and its   di~position    by Both the trial Court and the court of              C~iminal

Appeals. As   d~monstrated     above the trial Coutt Granted Applicant's

'Motion' and entered an Order        'Nunc Pro Tunc• Corrected the- 'JUDGMENT

AND[SENTENCE]''· Reduced the Felony offense from [lst degree aggravat-

ed kidnapping]. To reflect the Jury's actual Verdict                  '[2nd Degree Agg-

ravated Kidnapping]' pursuant to TEX.PENAL CODE ANN. §20.04(b)(Vernon

l993);See also Hughes V. State, 493            S~W.   2d 166, 170 (Tex. Crim. App.

1973){"A judgment may be reformed so as to show the offense of which

the accused was found guilt"y··py=:: a·. court· or -·Jury;,)..

     The actions taken by the trial Court Judge, On [April 21, 2014] was

well after Applicant's initial Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus'

filed On [October 15, 2013], in the Harris Cou~nty, .District Clerk's

                                     4

                                                                                             .?:•. ;/ .,"
office. And was'Denied Without Written Order' On [January 8, 2014] by

the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals ... Thus, Applicant is entitle to

this Application for Writ of Habaes Corpus, consideration being adequ-

ately presented and as demonettate above by the preponderance of the

factual legal    ba~i~   was not available at the time Applicant filed the

initial Application. See e.g., Ex parte Lemke, 13 s.w. 3d 791, 794

(Tex. Crim. App. 2000)(conc1uding that court would address merits of

subsequent habeas corpus application when applicant-show             that claims

could   not have been presented in his ·initial ~rit application because
the factuaR basis for it was unavailable").

   Thus, based on the factual basis, preserited herein and based on the

evidence and the records,· in this instant Application,          The Court should

find that   Ap~licant'~    has reached.his burden. That this Honorable Court

and the Texas Supreme Court Of Criminal Appeals, Both have jurisdiction

and Statutory authority to address Applicant's claims. Under Article

11.07, Section 4{a)(l), Texas Code Crimjnal Procedure.

   The recoid in the      in~tant   case, reflect that the trial Court Judge

presiding over Applicant's      'Motion Reformation Aggravated Kidnapping

Judgment'. Entered and Order: Corrected the         'JUDGMENT AND SENTENCE'.

Therefore, effectively reduced Applicant's Sentence to a 2nd-Degree Fe-

lony. Pursuant to TEX.PENAL CODE. ANN. §12.33(a), [Second Degree Felony

Punishment] provides:

  (ci) 'An··iridividual adjti~~~ guilty of a   FeJony of the Second degree
shall be punished in the Texas Departmnet         Justice-In~titutiona1        Divi-
sion any t'erm mo·r:e-·not ·:bl:T.an [20-years] nor D..ess than 2-years] Id.

                                    5

                                                                  :00031
      The difference   fro~   the original trial Court's "Sentence'' ... See

also TEX.PENAL CODE ANN.§12.32(a),           [First Degree Felony Punishment]

level provides;

      (a)'An   individ~al   adjudged guilty of the First Degree shall be
punishm~nt      in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Institution-
 Division for '[LIFE]' or any term not more than [99-years] or less
than [5-years] id.

      The 'Judgment and Sentence' is in conflict with the punishment im-

p6sed. The records reflect:that Applicant alone did voluntarily re-

lease the      complai~ants   alive and in a safe place. As a matter of law,
pursuant to TEX.PENAL CODE AN~. §20.04(b}(Vernon 1993), allows a de-
fendant who has been convicted of aggravated·kidnapping to mitigate

punishment, if he can prove by the preponderance-of the evidence that

he voluntarily released the        ~ict~ms   alive and in a safe place. This

former Statute that Applicant was convicted §(b) and that to the

current Statute (d). The former Statute in whcih Applicant was con-
victed. TEX.PENAL CODE·ANN. §20.04(b)(Vernon 1993), which states:

      (b)'An offense under this    ~ection    is a felony of the first degree
      unless the actor voluntarily releases the victim alive and in a
      safe place. in which it is a felony of the second degree.'

Id.

      The trial Court Ordered that the Official       ~ecords   be corrected to

reflect that Applicant conviction should read Aggravated Kidnapping

2nd Degree Felony, and Ordered that the          'JUDGMENT AND SENTENCE' be

corrected. However, the Judgmenet reflects .that of assessment of pun-

ishment ['LIFE']. Where the Sentence Order to be corrected, but the

                                    6

                                                                    :00032

      The Court of Criminal Appeals, have held that "When the Oral Pro-

nounce~e~t     of sentence in open court and the written judgment             con~

fl·icts to. the Oral Pronouncement controls." See Thompson V. State,

108    s.w.   3d 287, 290 (Tex.     C~im.      App. 2003).

      The Court further held Iri Smith V. State, 15 S.W.3d at 298-99

("[B]efore a judgment rtunc pro tunc may be entered, there must be

proof the_    p~oposed   j~dgment   was actually entered or pronounced at a
eariler time".);See also Jones V. State, 795 S.W.2d at 201; Dickson

V. State, 988     s.w. 2d at 268.
      In the instant case, the trial Court Judge presiding over the "Nunc

Pro Tnuc' hearing and proceedings, Order is based on a                 preponder~nce

of the evidence. This case being unique, In that thete is not Only
the Testimony of the Complainant (TANYA MILLER LODEN), that .. Appli-

cant alone drove Her and Her (INFANT-BABY), She referred to as (BABY-

JOE)--[JOSEPH MILLER LODEN], in Cause No, 659154. To the shoulder of

the FWY c~utioned He~ of Her where-abo~ts existed Her car, ~he drove

away, Wheh She arrived home, She called her Husband and the Police

(SF III, 62-70). There is         ~lso       a [Verdict Form], that was submitted

to the Jury, although egregious attached to the Jury's Charge at the

GUILT/INNOCENCE Phase. See Buchanan V. State,· 881 S.W.2d 376 (Tex.

App.-Houston [1 otst] 1994), See alsb 911               s.w.   2d 11, On remand 1996

WL 640740, petition for discretionary review refused).

   The records reflects that the Original trial Court _presiding over

make the appropriate corrections.              Ent~red   egregious in Applicant's

Judgment and Sentence, and thereto correct Applicant [SBD]-Sentence

Begin Date. Back to its Original Date Of 3/10/1993. From the egregious

entry in the Judgment and            T~ansmitted   to (TDCJ-ID), Texas Deprtment of

Criminal   Justice-Institut~onal          Division--Classification and Custodian

of Records. The records should properly reflect the date of the •alleg-

ed offense on March 4, 1993. Applicant being found guilty by Jury On

October 2~, 1993~          and Arrested On March 10, 1993. Being the e~~ct: date

Applicant was taken intoJ,custudy and held in detention at the West Uni-

versity Place Police Department. Being the Arresting agency.

   In    th~se·error      presented. The Court should Grant Applicant's requests

and Order a Hearing and· Orally'?ronouncement of Applicant's                 'Judgment·

and Sentence'      iri Applicant's presents, to          ~fford   Applicant due process

heard,   ;~·.ntrod!Jce   eyidence,   exaim~    any "{i.tnesses. against Him, to be re-

presented by Counsel.

   Thus, the Court should follow the well-settled law set-out in Vasquez,

not because the written judgment was "void",                but because 'it violates a

defendant's Constitutional Right to due process to Orally Pronouncement

Sentence to him and that later without giving him an opportunity to be

heard, enter a written judgment              impo~ing   a significant harsher Sentence.

                            STATE'S ORIGINAL ANSWER

      The State of Texas, through its Assistant District Attorney for Harris County,

files this, its original answer in the above-captioned cause, having been served with
                                                   .                         .
an application for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to TEX. CoDE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art.

11.07 § 3 (West 2013), and would show the following:

                                         I.

      The applicant is confined pursuant to the judgment and sentence of the

339th District Court of Harris County, Texas, in cause number 0659156 (the

primary case), where the applicant was convicted pursuant to a guilty Jury verdict

for the felony offense of aggravated kidnapping. The jury assessed punishment,

enhanced by two (2) prior felony convictions, at life confinement in the Texas

Department of Criminal Justice- Institutional Division (TDCJ-ID), formerly the

Texas Department of Corrections.

                                                                         :00116
         On January 19, 1995,· the First Court of Appeals affirmed the applicant's.

appeal. Lowe v. State, No. 01-93-00987-CR, 1995 WL 19052 (Tex. App.-Houston

[1st Dist.] Jan. 19, 1995, pet. ref' d) (mem. op., not designated for publication).

         -The applicant filed a ·previous --writ -application challenging his conviction,

cause number 0659156-A. The Court of Criminal Appeals denied the applicant's first

application on December      ~8,   2013. ·

                                             II.

         The State denies the factual allegations made in the instant application,

except those supported by official court records, and offers the following additional ·

reply:

         The applicant alleges trial court error and clerical error. See Writ Application

at 6-7. However, this is the applicant's second writ application. As the applicant

was denied of his first application in cause number 0659156-A, Section 4 of Arti.cle

11.07 then governs the filing of this application. If a subsequent writ application is

filed after the final disposition of an application challenging the same conviction,

the Court may not consider the merits of or grant relief based on a subsequent

application unless the application contains sufficient specific ·facts establishing

that:

                                             2

                                                                             :00117
         (1)   the current claims have not been and could not ·have been presented
               previously in an original or in a previously considered application
               because the factual or legal basis for the claim was unavailable on the
               date the applicant filed the previous application; or

         (2)   by a preponderance of the evidence, but for a violation of the United
               States Constitution no rational juror could have found the applicant
               guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

TEX.   (RIM. PROC. CODE ANN. art. 11.07 § 4 (a) (West 2013) (emphasis added).

         The instant writ application ·was filed after the final disposition of the

applicant's prior writ application, cause number 0659156-A, challenging the same

. conviction. The applicant has failed to include. sufficient specific facts establishing

that the current claims could not have been presented previously .because. the

factual or legal basis for the claims were unavailable; or that, by a preponderance

of the evidence, no rational juror could have found the applicant guilty beyond a

reasonable doubt. Therefore, the Court may not consider the merits of or grant

relief based on the instant writ of habeas corpus, and the instant writ should be

dismissed.

                                           Ill.

        The applicant raises questions of law and fact which can be resolved by the

Court of Criminal Appeals upon review of official court records and without need for

an evidentiary heari~g.

                 .     '
          the legality of the applicant's confinement which require an evidentiary hearing

          and recommends that the instant writ . application be dismissed because the

          applicant fails to include sufficient specific facts establishing that his grounds for

          relief could not have been presented previously because the factual or legal basis

          for the claim was unavailable; or that, by ·a preponderance of the evidence, no

          rational juror could have found the applicant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
