         IN RE STATE OF TEXAS, EX REL. SHAREN WILSON, Relator

             ON PETITION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS
                     IN CAUSE NO. 1287820X1
  IN THE COUNTY CRIMINAL COURT NO. 10 FROM TARRANT COUNTY

       Per curiam.

                                         ORDER

       Relator filed a petition for a writ of mandamus pursuant to the original jurisdiction of

this Court. The petition requests that we issue a writ of mandamus in the underlying case,

ordering the statutory county court to reform its judgment, which ordered less than the full

amount of a bail bond, to reflect the full amount of the bond. The intermediate court of

appeals has denied Relator’s mandamus application without explanation. In re Sharen

Wilson, Criminal District Attorney, Tarrant County, Texas 02-17-00369-CV (Tex.

App.—Fort Worth Dec. 19, 2017)(not designated for publication).
                                                                                              2

       It appears that Relator may be entitled to relief. T EX. C ODE C RIM. P RO. Art. 22.02;

State ex rel. Vance v. Routt, 571 S.W.2d 903 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). This Court orders that

Tarrant County, file a response with this Court. The real parties in interest, defendant Miguel

to file a petition for a writ of mandamus will be held in abeyance until the respondent has

date of this order.
