Opinion

IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS

NOS. PD-1049-24 & PD-1050-24

RODOLFO CERVANTES, Appellant

v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS

ON APPELLANT=S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW FROM THE FIFTH COURT OF APPEALS DALLAS COUNTY

Per curiam.

OPINION

We granted Appellant’s petition for discretionary review to determine whether the

court of appeals used the incorrect prejudice standard in analyzing Appellant’s ineffective

assistance of counsel claim. Having examined the record and briefs, we conclude that

our decision to grant review was improvident. We therefore dismiss Appellant’s

petition for discretionary review as improvidently granted.
