Description
ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS Per Curiam Confined at the end of a contempt hearing by the judge's oral order, Billy W. Jordan brings this petition for
writ of habeas corpus, contending, inter alia, that the contempt order is void because it was not signed and reduced to writing
until three days after confinement. Concluding that Jordan's contention is well-taken and this case is indistinguishable from
Ex parte Amaya, 748 S.W.2d 224 (Tex. 1988), we grant the writ and, without oral argument, hold the contempt order void and
order Jordan released.
