Order entered October 15, 2019

                                                In The
                                   Court of Appeals
                            Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
                                        No. 05-19-01249-CR

                           EX PARTE MARIO ENRIQUE VALADEZ

                        On Appeal from the 86th Judicial District Court
                                   Kaufman County, Texas
                             Trial Court Cause No. 24491A-86

                                                ORDER
        The Court is in receipt of appellant’s notice of appeal from the trial court’s order denying

relief sought by his post-conviction application for writ of habeas corpus. This is an accelerated

appeal and is governed by Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 31.

        We ORDER the trial court to prepare a certification of appellant’s right to appeal and to

file it with the clerk’s record.

        We ORDER the K a u f m a n County D i s t r i c t Clerk to file the clerk’s record by

October 30, 2019. We ORDER that the clerk’s record contain copies of the application for writ

of habeas corpus, any response by the State, the trial court’s order disposing of the writ

application, any other documents filed that relate to the writ application, and the trial court’s

certification of appellant’s right to appeal.

        We ORDER the court reporter to file, by October 30, 2019, either the reporter’s record

from the hearing on the writ application or written verification that no hearing was conducted.
        Because appellant has filed an appeal from a habeas corpus proceeding challenging a

conviction, we apply the same briefing rules, deadlines, and schedule that apply to direct appeals

from criminal cases. See TEX. R. APP. P. 31.1(a). Thus, appellant’s brief shall be due thirty days

after the record is filed.

        We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to the

Honorable Casey Blair, Presiding Judge, 86th Judicial District Court; Elizabeth Crow Woods,

Official Court Reporter, 86th Judicial District Court; Rhonda Hughey, Kaufman County

District Clerk; and counsel for appellant and the State.
