4 the legality of the-Applicant!s confinement, where Applicant writs alleges the
claim of "actual innocence,"which require an evidentiary hearing.
The Coprt recommends the habeas claims alleged be determined in a evidentiary
hearing, Applicant habeas allegations, supported by evidence§-are sufficient to:
overcome the State's Original Answer dated Nov; 5th,-2015, filed by the Office
of Devon Anderson, District;Attorney; by Farnaz Faiaz, Assistant District_
Attorney. The State's Answer do not address the “State's Request for Designsv
ation of Issue.filed by Andrew Smith; Assistant District Attorney on March lith;§.
Applicant has presented to the habeas corpus court a copy of the`Clerk's
Record in 1222385, prepared by Salinas on June 18th, 2010 to the Court of
Appeals. In that Recopd Applicant claim of actual innocence is clear, that
is to say, there is no complainant, CR- 00004` the complaint used by the State
to acquire the indictment is a complaint that was dismissed against Applicant

ficienly to undermine confidenceein the verdict and that it is possible that
the verdict would be different. Be it noted, Exhibit "A" thur "S", (CR¥00035556)
was never presented before the jury nor was the exhibits properly made a part of`
`the record, once the threshold has been met, the habeas'court,iwhich is this
Court must afford this applicant a forum and an opportunity to present his
evidence. Holmesi 885 S.W.Zd at 397. Applicant has made his prima facie show~
ing, which is with clear and convincing evidence the Court of Appeals is en-
-titled to review in the habeas record that appears to being put into place to
v forward to the Court of Criminal Appeals. However, State’s'Original Answer
do not make reference to the State's Motion to Designate Issueeand State's
Proposed Order to Designate lssue, filed on March 11;& 12, 2014, that must
_'be made a part of the rscord..(See, Exhibit "A" 1 thur 4, attached hereto)
