EX PARTE MARCO ANTONIO MELENDEZ, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 933216-A IN THE 68,943-01 DISTRICT COURT
FROM HARRIS COUNTY
Per curiam.
O R D E R
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 writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of possession of a firearm by a felon, and sentenced to ten years' imprisonment.
On January 16, 2008, this Court remanded this application to the trial court for findings of fact and conclusion of law regarding Applicant's claim that he was denied the opportunity to file a pro se petition for discretionary review. On remand, the trial court made findings of fact and conclusions of law that were based on affidavits from the mail room on Applicant's unit. The trial court recommended that Applicant be afforded opportunity to file an out-of-time PDR.
On February 29, 2008 this Court received a request from Applicant to abandon his out-of-time PDR claim and proceed to rule on his remaining grounds for review. This Court has reviewed Applicant's remaining grounds for review, and finds them to be without merit. Therefore, we deny relief.
It is so ordered on this the19th day of March, 2008.
