Ex parte Cathcart
Court of Appeals of Texas
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
Opinion by
ALMA L. LÓPEZ, Justice.
Previously, we considered Melanie Cath-cart’s appeal of the trial court’s judgment denying her application for writ of habeas corpus. Because we determined that Cathcart was accused of committing the offense of intoxication manslaughter beginning the day she was arrested on October 4, 1996, and because article 32.01 of the Code of Criminal Procedure uses the language “any criminal accusation,” we instructed the trial court to enter an order granting habeas relief. In response, the State filed a petition for discretionary review challenging our decision.
