OPINION
RAY, Justice.
This is an original habeas corpus proceeding. Relator, Eugene Acly, was found in contempt of a district court judgment for failure to pay child support. As punishment, he was ordered confined in the County Jail of Harris County, Texas, for 180 days. The District Court’s order included a leave to file an application for probation upon meeting certain terms and conditions.

Acly is being denied commutation of time…
