EX PARTE RICHARD NAVARRO, Applicant


Do not publish

On Application for a writ of Habeas Corpus Cause No. 2019CR7865-W1 in the 175th District Court from Bexar County

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Applicant was convicted of aggravated assault and sentenced to twelve years' imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction. Applicant filed this application for a writ of habeas corpus in the county of conviction, and the district clerk forwarded it to this Court. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. art. 11.07.

Applicant contended, among other things, that trial counsel was ineffective and that he was denied his due process rights. The trial court made findings of fact and conclusions of law, recommending that relief be denied. After receiving the writ record, this Court ordered the Bexar County District Clerk to provide us with a copy of the reporter's record. When the district clerk failed to comply with our order, the Court remanded the case to the trial court to ensure such document was forwarded to this Court. At the time of those orders, this Court did not realize that the trial proceedings had not been transcribed. We, therefore, rescind those orders requesting a copy of that record and issue this order instead.

Based upon the habeas court's findings and our own independent review of the record, we conclude that Applicant's grounds lack merit. Relief is denied.
