Opinion

IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-WR-89,105-01

EX PARTE TOSHA LYNN HOUSTON, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 249-00873A IN THE 249TH DISTRICT COURT FROM SOMERVELL COUNTY

Per curiam.

ORDER 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 entered an open plea of guilty to possession of a controlled substance and was sentenced to eighty years’ imprisonment.

On November 7, 2018, this Court remanded this application to the trial court for findings of fact and conclusions of law as to a single claim of ineffective assistance of trial counsel. The remand order contained a footnote indicating that this Court had considered Applicant’s other claims and found them to be without merit. On November 19, 2018, the trial court made findings of fact and conclusions of law as to the single claim designated in this Court’s remand order.

Based on the trial court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law as well as this Court’s independent review of the record, we deny relief.
