EX PARTE Adrian James HILLARD Jr.

Original Proceeding 1

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Irene Rios, Justice

Delivered and Filed: December 7, 2022

PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS DENIED

Relator Adrian James Hillard Jr. filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus in which he asks

this court to release him from custody. Relator is represented by trial counsel below; therefore, he

is not entitled to hybrid representation. Patrick v. State, 906 S.W.2d 481, 498 (Tex. Crim. App.

1995). The absence of a right to hybrid representation means relator’s pro se habeas corpus petition

will be treated as presenting nothing for this court’s review. See id. Accordingly, relator’s petition

for writ of habeas corpus is denied. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
