IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS NO. WR-79,159-01 EX PARTE RICHARD MILLER WALKER, Applicant ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS CAUSE NO. 841603 IN THE 338TH DISTRICT COURT FROM HARRIS COUNTY Per curiam. ALCALA , J., not participating. 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 was convicted of murder and sentenced to seventy-five years imprisonment. The Fourteenth Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction. Walker v. State, No. 14-01-01197-CR (Tex. App. Houston [14th Dist.] 2003, pet. ref d). In a single ground in an amended application, Applicant contends that trial counsel failed to object to the admission of extraneous offense evidence at punishment. He contends that the State 2 failed to provide pretrial notice or else provided inadequate pretrial notice of its intent to introduce extraneous offense evidence. The trial court adopted Applicant s proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law and recommended that we grant Applicant a new punishment hearing. Based on our own independent review of the record, we find that the State s notice was sufficient and that the trial court would not have erred in overruling counsel s objection. Relief is denied.
