To    the    honorable          court of criminal                   appeals:

           mathis    carl       uilliams,3r.,                Movant       herein,          respectfully          sub

mits       this Motion          For    Rehearing             pursuant to             Art.11.07 and Gov't,

Code       §508.283 and          §508.281.

                                                 HISTORY       OF       CASE

           Movant    mas    convicted             of    Robbery          in    Trial       court    Cause    num

ber    565079       and    Unauthorized                Use    of    a    Mo toe      Vehicle       in    Cause

number 566476,             in    Harris          County,       Texas          on    October 22,1990.

Sentence       was    assessed             at    28    years       in    each       case    and    were    ordered

to    be    served concurrently.

           Movant uas transferred to                         the tdcj-cid and served 16 years,

6 months       and 2 days             before being released to                         parole on          January

10,2007.       On    the day          of    release,          Movant had 11                years,5       months

and    28    days    remaining             to    serve       on his       sentences.

           Movant    uas    out       of custody             6 years,          4 months       and       7 days    be

fore his       parole uas revoked on May 31,2013.

           Movant filed          an    application for writ of habeas                               corpus

challenging          the denial             of his       "street time"                credits       and uas

dismissed       without          written          order       because          of    numerous       urits.
Movant    believes          his    application was                erroneously         dismissed       be

cause    he   is     NOT    challenging          the       underlying          convictions       as   he

did in all his previous applications.                               Movant believes he is en

titled to       his       street time credits                   and respectfully ire-urges                 his

arguments       in      Cause     Number       WR-16 ,282-06.

        The application for writ of                         habeas corpus,            the subject of

this motion for rehearing,                      uas       the first time Movant requested

review    for      the     denial    of    street          time    credits.         TDCJ-CID     relies

upon    Gov't.Code          §§508.149          and       5 0 8.2B3 to        authorize forfeiture               of

street    time       credits.       Movant       shoued          this    honorable       court    how      this

law does      NOT apply . Movant.                Movant pleads for clarity of what

is   "prior",        what    is    "holding"             and uhat       is    "current"    as    to   the

description          of convictions             for       the    purpose       of   Gov't.Code' §5 0 8.283

                                                          II.

                                                CONCLUSION

        Wherefore,          premises considered,                   Movant       prays this honorable

court    will      grant     this    Motion          For    Rehearing          because    his    applica

tion for writ of habeas corpus uas erroneously dismissed without

proper justification.                Ex    Parte          Barber,       8 79' S. Id. 2d 889.     This was

Movant's first request for review of the denial of his                                           street

time    credits         and misapplication                 of the       law by      TDCD-CID.     Movant

believes      he     is    entitled       to    review          of his       revocation    of    super

vised    release.          Movant    re-urges             his   original        grounds    of    error

and requests            review on the merits.                    With    this motion,          Movant      is

attempting         to     exhaust his          available          State       remedies    to    comply

uith    exhaustion          requirements.

                                                                        Respectfully       Submitted,
