IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
                        OF TEXAS
                                       NO. WR-92,146-01

                      EX PARTE CALVIN DEMOND REED, Applicant

                ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
                CAUSE NO. 1110368-A IN THE 263RD DISTRICT COURT
                             FROM HARRIS COUNTY

       Per curiam.

                                            ORDER

       Applicant was convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child under 14 and sentenced to

twenty years’ imprisonment. The First Court of Appeals dismissed the applicant’s appeal for lack

of jurisdiction in an unpublished opinion delivered on April 1, 2010. Reed v. State, No.

01-09-00869-CR (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] Apr. 1, 2010, no pet.). 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.

       On February 14, 2017, the trial court entered an order designating issues. The district clerk

properly forwarded this application to this Court under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure

73.4(b)(5). However, the application was forwarded before the trial court made findings of fact and
conclusions of law. We remand this application to the trial court to complete its evidentiary

investigation and make findings of fact and conclusions of law.

        The trial court shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law within ninety days from

the date of this order. The district clerk shall then immediately forward to this Court the trial court’s

findings and conclusions and the record developed on remand, including, among other things,

affidavits, motions, objections, proposed findings and conclusions, orders, and transcripts from

hearings and depositions. See TEX . R. APP . P. 73.4(b)(4). Any extensions of time must be requested

by the trial court and obtained from this Court.
