Pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, the clerk of the trial court transmitted to this Court this application for a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of the offense of murder and sentenced to imprisonment for forty years. The Ninth Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction. Goodrich v. State, No. 09-10-00167-CR (Tex. App-Beaumont April 13, 2011).

On November 5, 2012, a timely order designating issues was signed by the trial court. The habeas record has been forwarded to this Court prematurely. We remand this application to the 411^TH District Court of Polk County to allow the trial judge to complete an evidentiary investigation, obtain the ordered affidavits, and enter findings of fact and conclusions of law.

This application will be held in abeyance until the trial court has resolved the fact issues. The issues shall be resolved within 90 days of this order. A supplemental transcript containing all affidavits and interrogatories or the transcription of the court reporter's notes from any hearing or deposition, along with the trial court's supplemental findings of fact and conclusions of law, shall be forwarded to this Court within 120 days of the date of this order. Any extensions of time shall be obtained from this Court.
