Description
This is an original application for writ of habeas corpus brought by an inmate of the Texas Department of Corrections. He challenges the legality of his conviction as an habitual criminal in cause No. 10,850 in the 20th District Court of Milam County on March 23, 1959. His grounds are that he was indigent and was not represented by counsel when he was convicted in cause No. 10,730 in the 20th District Court on April 24, 1953, for the felony offense of aiding a prisoner to escape from jail, and that such cause was alleged and used for enhancement in his 1959 conviction. On January 10, 1967, this Court ordered the Honorable W. C. Wallace, present Judge of the 20th District Court, to conduct a hearing upon the petition for writ of habeas corpus. At such hearing the petitioner was present and represented by counsel, and Judge Wallace has certified the facts developed to this Court.
