Opinion

IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

NO. WR-80,831-01 EX PARTE CHRISTOPHER MICHAEL FULLER, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

CAUSE NO. 10-743-K368A IN THE 368TH DISTRICT COURT

FROM WILLIAMSON 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 five counts of sexual assault and sentenced to imprisonment for ten years on each count. He was also convicted of sexual performance by a child and placed on probation for ten years. The Third Court of Appeals dismissed his appeal. Fuller v. State, No. 03-12-00045-CR (Tex. App.--Austin 2012, no pet.).

Applicant contends that trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance. Based on our own independent review of the record, we conclude that his claims relating to his sexual assault convictions are without merit. Relief is denied. We decline to review the merits of his claims relating to his sexual performance by a child conviction. This is not a final conviction. See Ex parte Renier, 734 S.W.2d 349 (Tex. Crim. App. 1987). The claims relating to this conviction are dismissed. This application is denied in part and dismissed in part.
