    EX PARTE Arthur Wing Hung CHANG, Applicant
    NO. WR-82,712-01
    Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    Filed March 23, 2016
    Don Hase, Arlington, TX, for Applicant.
    Steve W. Conder, District Attorney, Fort Worth, Texas, Lisa C. McMinn, State’s Attorney, Austin, for The State.
   DISSENTING OPINION

Yeary, J., filed a dissenting opinion.

The Court today grants post-conviction habeas corpus relief on the grounds that Applicant was convicted under a statute that was later declared to be unconstitutionally overbroad, namely, Texas’ improper photography statute. See Majority Opinion (granting relief based upon Ex parte Thompson, 442 S.W.3d 325 (Tex.Crirm.App. 2014)). However, I believe the argument I made in my dissenting opinion in Ex parte Fournier, while addressing a different statute—Texas’ Online Solicitation of a Minor statute—still applies to Applicant in this case. See Ex parte Fournier, 473 S.W.3d 789, 800-805 (Tex.Crim.App. 2015) (Yeary, J., dissenting) (arguing that the Court should not grant retroactive relief in post-conviction habeas corpus proceedings without deciding whether applicants who were convicted under a statute that has been held to be unconstitutionally overbroad should have to show that the statute was unconstitutional as applied to them). Therefore, I dissent for the reasons stated in my dissenting opinion in Fournier.
