IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

NO. WR-54,381-02 EX PARTE RONALD ALAN BURKS, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

CAUSE NO. 1150803 IN THE 262^ND 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 a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of driving while intoxicated and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. He did not appeal his conviction.

Applicant contends, among other things, that he was denied pre-sentence jail time and that trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance. The trial court entered findings of fact and conclusions of law and recommended that we not consider Applicant pre-sentence jail time claim and deny his other claims. Accordingly, Applicant's pre-sentence jail time claim is dismissed. Ex parte Ybarra, 149 S.W.3d 147 (Tex. Crim. App. 2004); Ex parte Deeringer, 210 S.W.3d 616 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006). His other claims are denied.
