Description

Petition for Discretionary Review From the Eighth Court of Appeals El Paso County OPINION ON APPELLANT'S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW Appellant was indicted for indecency with a child and two counts of aggravated sexual assault. Upon Appellant's plea of guilty, the trial court deferred adjudication of guilt and placed Appellant on community supervision for ten years. Appellant did not appeal from the deferred adjudication order. While on community supervision, Appellant filed an application for writ of in the trial court, claiming his guilty plea was involuntary. The trial court granted the writ, but denied relief. See Ex parte Hargett, 819 S.W.2d 866 (Tex.Cr.App. 1991). Appellant appealed the denial of habeas relief, and the Court of Appeals dismissed the appeal. Ex parte Silva, __S.W.2d__ (Tex.App. - El Paso, No. 08-97-00281-CR, delivered February 26, 1998). The Court of Appeals held that without a final conviction, the order denying habeas relief was an interlocutory order over which it had no jurisdiction. Slip op., at p. 3. In Ex parte McCullough, __S.W.2d__ (Tex.Cr.App. No. 501-97, delivered April 15, 1998), we relied on Hargett and held that courts of appeals have jurisdiction to review the denial of habeas relief from a claim of illegal restraint by an order deferring adjudication of guilt. 1 Therefore, the Court of Appeals has jurisdiction to hear the appeal in the instant case.
