OPINION

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 writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of burglary of a habitation and sentenced to nine years’ of community supervision. Applicant subsequently pleaded true to a motion to revoke and was sentenced to nine years’ imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction.

Applicant contends that his plea of “true” to the motion to revoke was involuntary because it was predicated on the possibility of “shock probation,” and he was not brought back to Maverick County while the trial court still had jurisdiction to consider “shock probation.” Counsel did not file necessary motions to have applicant considered for “shock probation” while the trial court still had jurisdiction under Section 6 of Article 42.12 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. We remanded this application to the trial court for findings of fact and conclusions of law.

IN MEMORIAM OUR FRIEND, MENTOR, AND COLLEAGUE It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our partner, friend, mentor, and colleague Bruce I. Goldstein, on September 2, 2023. The prominent New Jersey trial attorney was 80. In a legal career spanning more than five decades, Bruce was regarded as one of the most talented and sought after litigators in New Jersey. His love for the legal profession was contagious. Bruce will be greatly missed, as will his signature greeting, How you be? and the outsized smile that accompanied it.
