recommendation to this Honorable Court,in which the applicant _
supplements his HC5,filing his supplement in the trial court,pursuant
to the provisions of Rules of Civil Procedure,Rule 62, 64, 69 and Rule
58,due to the reconsideration by the trial court of No.94-DCR-026185
HC3 in reason of aggravated perjury committed in the first affidavit

APPLICANT' s sUPPLEMENT
I . '

The following is to be supplemented into the subsection:

‘Legal Support & Facts concerning the Harmful Errors,
Violations of U.S.Constitutions, and Substantial Rights in case 26185’

which is part of II.of Applicant’s Memorandum HC5:

In pursuant to Ex parte Pond,418 S.W.3d 94 n.l$(Tex.Crim.App.ZOlB):

Best practices include filing all materials with the trial court
before trial judge has signed his findings of fact and made his
recommendation to this court. But an applicant is not foreclosed from
amending or supplementing his materials even after the application is
forwarded to this court, as long as those materials are filed in the

trial court.

(

'Based on the facts and record of this case, the applicant is justified
in moving to having the indictment in this case dismissed, due to the
indictment being created by an illegal taken_statement in which the
applicant has proven was in fact illegally taken and inadmissible by
law beyond a reasonable doubt, concluding that there was no evidence
other than the illegal taken statement} and due to it being illegally
'taken and inadmissible, the indictment is no longer valid. The use of
hearsay evidence before a grand jury may render an indictment invalid
if (l):The Government misleads the Grand Jury into thinking it is
receiving first hand testimony or (2):lf there is a high probability
that the defendant would not have been indicted had only non-hearsay
evidence been used; Ruggiero 934 F.Zd 440,447(2@.Cir.l991j,both (l) &
(2) applying to this case 26185. With\the prosecutor with-holding the
4only evidence(The Investigating Record) that proves that the Statement
,was illegally taken, in sealing the investigating record in Juvenile
Proceedings after the applicant was certified impaired the Grand

' Jury’s Function. U.S. v;w§utierres$§96 F.Zd 753,755(10th Cir.l982);
Strickler v. Greene,527 U.S.2€3,281-82. Without the illegal taken
statement, there was no evidence which would have convicted the
applicant, and due to the indictment being created by the illegal
taken statement which is proven to bo inadmissible, the validity of
the indictment is affected no longer stands as valid. Morrison,449

UjS. at 365-66 n.2.

iI.

Also pursuant to Ex parte Pond,418 S.W.3d 94
\n.l3(Tex.Crim.App.2013,The following is to be supplemented in
reference to HC5 which is pending in the trial\court due to the

Honorable Judge Shoemake signing an order designating issues. The
following is to be supplemented into the subsection:

 

 

‘How Applicant was Harmed by the DeGarmo Doctrine'

as lV.of Applicant’s Memorandum of HCB:

The applicant was also harmed by the DeGarmo Doctrine stopping him
from presenting that the trial court abused it’s discretion by
improperly appointing defense counsel as appellate counsel, creating
conflict of interest which caused appellant egregious harm. Due to
there being ineffective assistance of counsel in trial by Cary
M.Faden,the conflict of interest is created when the trial court
appointed trial counsel Cary M.Faden as appellate counsel, and in Cary
M.Faden filing the applicant’s direct appeal,it was for sure that the
trial counsel Cary M.Faden would not file a ineffective assistance
claim on him-self as the appellate counsel,which would entitle the
applicant to an out-of-time appeal. Furthermore, the basis of these
claims were not reasonably available at the time of appeall.Due to the
authority of the DeGarmo Doctrine stopping the applicant from
presenting these violations and errors that would have had a major
impact on this case if DeGarmo would not have existed. EX parte
Axel,757 S.W.Zd 369(Tex.Crim.App.l988); Leday v. State,983 S.W.Zd at
725; EX parte Boyd,58 S.W.3d l34(Tex.Crim.App.2001); Jacobson v.
State,398 S.W.3d l95(TeX.Crim.App.2013); Ex parte White,l60 S.W.3d
