CONCURRING Opinion

 

In Villanueva v. State, 209 S.W.3d 239 (Tex. App. Waco 2006, no pet.), the majority made many of the same mistakes which are repeated in their opinion in this case. I explained my disagreement with their procedure in my concurring opinion in that proceeding. Id. at 249-252 (Gray, C.J., concurring). For the same reasons, I concur only in the judgment in this proceeding.[1]

TOM GRAY

Chief Justice

[1] Also, Mr. Clark, while the majority purports to have you instructed of your right to file a pro se petition for discretionary review, this is not accurate. An attorney can also file one on your behalf, but you are not entitled to have counsel appointed to file one for you to be paid for with State or county funds.
