EX PARTE CHRISTOPHER LYNN COWAN, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

CAUSE NO. 8565 IN THE 278TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT

FROM MADISON 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 aggravated assault of a correctional officer and sentenced to fifteen years' imprisonment.

In the instant application, Applicant raises one ground for review based on parole revocation proceedings that occurred in 2006. Additionally, Applicant claims that his sentence in this case was improperly stacked on a previous sentence for aggravated robbery without any evidence presented to justify consecutive sentencing.

This Court has reviewed Applicant's claim that he was denied due process in the parole revocation proceeding, and has determined that it is without merit. Therefore, it is denied. Applicant's remaining claim is barred from review; and is therefore dismissed. Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.07 § 4.
