                                     ORDER

      Adam Robert Mulhall filed petitions for writs of mandamus and habeas

corpus. Mulhall alleges that his confinement is illegal because he has been denied

credit for time served on his sentence. Additionally, Mulhall suggests the Sheriff of

Jefferson County, Texas, has not permitted him to receive the time credit to which

he is entitled. See Ex parte Acly, 711 S.W.2d 627, 628 (Tex. 1986).

      We refer this matter to the 317th District Court for the development of a record

of the facts regarding the allegations made by Mulhall in his petitions for mandamus

and habeas corpus. See generally Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(b); see also Ex parte

                                          1
Berryhill, 741 S.W.2d 186, 190 (Tex. App.—Beaumont 1987, orig. proceeding). The

trial court shall also determine whether Mulhall is indigent and entitled to appointed

counsel to represent Mulhall during said proceedings. The record of said proceedings

in the 317th District Court is due to be filed with this Court on or before March 23,

2018.

        ORDER ENTERED February 21, 2018.
