ORDER
This is a post conviction application for writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to the provisions of Texas Code of Criminal Procedure article 11.071. On February 4, 2003, a jury convicted applicant of the offense of capital murder. The jury answered the special issues submitted pursuant to Texas Code of Criminal Procedure article 37.071, and the trial court, accordingly, set punishment at death.

State, 189 S.W.3d 782 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006). Applicant presents three allegations in his application in which he challenges the validity of his conviction and resulting sentence. This Court has reviewed the record with respect to the allegations made by applicant. Applicant has not raised any cognizable claims. Relief is denied. IT IS SO ORDERED THIS THE 30TH DAY OF APRIL, 2008.
