IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

NO. WR-78,967-01

DEMETRICK SEAN WILLIAMS, Relator

v.

HARRIS COUNTY DISTRICT CLERK, Respondent

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS
CAUSE NOS. 133564501010 & 133636601010 IN THE 209TH 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 applications for a writ of habeas corpus in
the 209th District Court of Harris County, that more than 35 days have elapsed, and that the
applications have not yet been forwarded to this Court.
	In these circumstances, additional facts are needed.  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 applications, submitting copies of timely filed orders designating issues to be investigated
(see McCree v. Hampton, 824 S.W.2d 578, 579 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992)), or stating that Relator has
not filed applications for a writ of habeas corpus in Harris County.  Should the response include 
copies of orders designating issues, proof of the date the district attorney's office was served with
the habeas applications shall also be submitted with the response.  This application for leave to file
a writ of mandamus shall be held in abeyance until Respondent has submitted the appropriate
response.  Such response shall be submitted within 30 days of the date of this order.
