IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS

NO. WR-73,665-01

ROBERT GLENN DAVIS, Relator

v.

HARRIS COUNTY DISTRICT CLERK, Respondent

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS
CAUSE NO. 1034653 IN THE CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT
FROM HARRIS COUNTY

           Per curiam.

O R D E R

            Relator has filed a motion for leave to file a writ of mandamus pursuant to the original
jurisdiction of this Court. In it, he contends that he filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus
in the criminal district court of Harris County, that more than 35 days have elapsed, and that the
application has not yet been forwarded to this Court.  
             In these circumstances, additional facts are needed. The respondent, the District Clerk of 
Harris County, is ordered to file a response, which may be made by: submitting the record on such
habeas corpus application; submitting a copy of a timely filed order that designates issues to be
investigated, see McCree v. Hampton, 824 S.W.2d 578 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992); stating that the
claims asserted in the application filed by Relator are not cognizable under Tex. Code Crim. Proc.
art. 11.07, § 3; or stating that Relator has not filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus in Harris
County. The District Clerk shall also state whether any answers, motions, pleadings or orders have
been sent or delivered to Relator. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.07, § 7. This application for
leave to file a writ of mandamus shall be held in abeyance until the respondent has submitted the
appropriate response. Such response shall be submitted within 30 days of the date of this order.
