Description

After the trial court dismissed his lawsuit to expunge his record, appellant, Donald C. Jackson, attempted to obtain a free appellate record. Appellant filed an affidavit of indigency, which the District Clerk contested. The trial court sustained the contest. In two points of error, appellant argues that the trial court abused its discretion by (1) sustaining the District Clerks contest to appellants affidavit of indigency on the ground that no arguable basis of law existed to warrant a free copy of the record on appeal and (2) holding that appellants affidavit did not comply with the statute governing affidavits of indigency. Appellant is currently incarcerated in the Texas Department of Corrections on charges unrelated to this appeal. We reverse and render judgment that appellant be provided a free appellate record.
