On Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus Cause No. C-297-007806-0874357-B in the 297th District Court of Tarrant County.


ORDER


This is a subsequent application for a writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.071, Section 5, of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. In March 2003, a Tarrant County jury convicted applicant of the offense of capital murder. The jury answered the special issues submitted pursuant to Article 37.071 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure in favor of the State, and the trial court, accordingly, set punishment at death. This Court affirmed applicant's conviction and sentence on direct appeal in an unpublished opinion. Kerr v. State, No. AP-74,637 (Tex.Crim.App. Jan. 12, 2005). On October 20, 2004, applicant filed his initial post-conviction application for a writ of habeas corpus in the convicting court. This Court subsequently denied applicant relief. Ex parte Kerr, No. WR-62,402-01 (Tex.Crim.App. Aug. 31, 2005). Applicant's subsequent writ application was received in this Court on August 29, 2006. Applicant presents fifteen allegations in his subsequent writ application. We have reviewed the application and find all the allegations fail to satisfy the requirements of Article 11.071, Section 5(a), of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. Accordingly, applicant's subsequent application for a writ of habeas corpus is dismissed as an abuse of the writ. Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.071 § 5(c). IT IS SO ORDERED THIS THE 20TH DAY OF DECEMBER, 2006.
