The uncle should hire an attorney to file an Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus.

He should make sure the attorney has the experience and qualifications to handle such a matter, as there are limits to how many times this can be done.

The Texas Board of Legal Specialization [ tbls.org ] maintains a list of attorneys who are board certified criminal law specialists.
