Opinion
IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
ON APPLICATION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NUMBER 2005-240B IN THE 421ST JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT
CALDWELL COUNTY
Per Curiam.O R D E R
This is an application for a writ of habeas corpus that was transmitted to this Court by the clerk of the trial court pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.07, Section 3, of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. Ex Parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted in count one of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and in count two of possession of a prohibited weapon. The Applicant's sentence was assessed at twelve years' confinement in count one and seven years' confinement in count two. The Eighth Court of Appeals affirmed Applicant's conviction. Coleman v. State, No. 08-10-00297-CR (Tex. App.-El Paso, delivered
October 5, 2011, no pet.).
After a review of the record, we find that Applicant's claims of an excessive sentence and ineffective assistance of counsel are without merit and deny relief. Applicant's remaining claim regarding the failure to award pre-sentence jail time credit is dismissed. See Ex parte Florence, 319 S.W.3d 695 (Tex. Crim. App. 2010); Ex parte Ybarra, 149 S.W.3d 147 (Tex. Crim. App. 2004).
