Description
Tex. Govt Code § 501.0081 requires an "inmate who alleges that time credited on the inmates sentence is in error" to first present this claim to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) office of time credit resolution. See Ex parte Stokes, 15 S.W.3d 532, 532-33 (Tex.Cr.App. 2000). Applicant was incarcerated in a county jail awaiting transfer to the TDCJ to serve a 3-year sentence for an indecency with a child conviction when he filed a habeas corpus application in the convicting court seeking more than 3 years of time-credit on this sentence. We filed and set this case and also ordered the parties to brief the issue of whether an applicant, "who is in county jail awaiting transfer to the [TDCJ] when he files an application, is an inmate for purposes of [§ 501.0081] and, thus, subject to its administrative exhaustion requirement." The TDCJ also accepted this Courts invitation to submit a brief on this issue.
