IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS



NOS. WR-74,354-03 & -04

EX PARTE COREY MCNEAL, Applicant

ON APPLICATIONS FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

CAUSE NOS. 96-02-15908CR & 96-02-15909CR

IN THE 82ND DISTRICT COURT

FROM ROBERTSON 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 these applications for writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of two counts of delivery of a controlled substance and sentenced to one year imprisonment on each count. He did not appeal his convictions.

Applicant contends that his trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance. The trial court found, among other things, that Applicant was engaged in an abuse of the writ process. We decline to adopt this finding. There has not been a final disposition of the merits of Applicant's claims; his previous applications were dismissed. A final disposition of an initial writ "must entail a disposition relating to the merits of all the claims raised." Ex parte Torres, 943 S.W.2d 469, 474 (Tex. Crim. App. 1997). With these words, we deny relief.
