  •              IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
    OF TEXAS
    NO. WR-65,038-04
    EX PARTE BRANDON LOHRAN WOODARD, Applicant
    ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
    CAUSE NO. W00-53218-M(D) IN THE 194TH DISTRICT COURT
    FROM DALLAS COUNTY
    Per curiam.
    ORDER
    Pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, the
    clerk of the trial court transmitted to this Court this application for a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte
    Young, 
    418 S.W.2d 824
    , 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of the offense of
    capital murder and sentenced to imprisonment for life. The Fifth Court of Appeals affirmed his
    conviction. Woodard v. State, No. 05-02-00839-CR (Tex. App.—Dallas April 4, 2003)(not
    designated for publication).
    The record shows that the trial court held a habeas hearing, where at least one witness did
    not appear. It appears that the trial court is not finished with its fact-finding. We remand this
    application to the 194th District Court of Dallas County to allow the trial judge to complete an
    evidentiary investigation and enter findings of fact and conclusions of law.
    This application will be held in abeyance until the trial court has resolved the fact issues. The
    issues shall be resolved within 90 days of this order. A supplemental transcript containing all
    affidavits and interrogatories or the transcription of the court reporter’s notes from any hearing or
    deposition, along with the trial court’s supplemental findings of fact and conclusions of law, shall
    be forwarded to this Court within 120 days of the date of this order. The supplemental record shall
    also contain Applicant’s memorandum of law and exhibits, if any. Any extensions of time must be
    requested by the trial court and shall be obtained from this Court.
