           Re:      Court of Criminal Appeals Writ No. WR-82,672-01;
                    Trial Court Cause No. W91-22107-Q(A);
                    Ex parte James Berkeley Harbin II

Dear Mr. Acosta:

       On December 19, 2014, Dallas County District Clerk’s Office filed a Clerk’s Record in
the above-mentioned case.1 That record contains the trial court’s Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law. The findings were issued on December 16, 2014 by the Honorable Lena
Levario, Presiding Judge of the 204th Judicial District Court in Dallas County. The State was
not served with a copy of said findings. The State learned of the December 16th findings
(which recommend that relief be granted in Applicant’s case) on December 29, 2014, when the
undersigned searched the Dallas County District Clerk online records database.

        Please allow this letter to serve as notice that the undersigned has now prepared and filed
with the trial court today, a copy of the State’s Objections to the Trial Court’s Findings of Fact,
Conclusions of Law and Recommendation of Trial Court on Application for Writ of Habeas
Corpus in the above-mentioned case. A copy of this document is attached to this letter. I expect
that the Clerk’s Office will send a supplemental record shortly.

                                                                          Sincerely,

                                                                          Christine Womble
                                                                          Assistant District Attorney
