OBJECTIONS TO THE TRIAL COURT NOT MAK1NG FINDINGS Or' FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

To: The Honorable Judges of the Gourt of Criminal Appeals, comes

now Joe Monte1ongo, and makes these his objections to the. Trial Court not mak1ng "F1nd1ngs of Fact, and Conclusions' of Law"1n his 11. 07 Writ of Habeas Corpus_appiication~»

Movant does show in support of this motion;

1. Applicant proved that his trial attorney had once prosecuted him on another charge, and because of Mr. Bret Martin being the prosecutor, it created a conflict of interest when Mr.'" Martin was appointed to represent him on another charge. See" Westbrook v. Zant 575 F. Supp. 156 189 §M D. GA. 1983); and Ziegenhagen 890 FZd 937, 940 §7th Clr. 989) "1t is well established that no attorney may represents criminal defendant when the attorney or a member of his firm either repre senter or has previously representt d the government in the prosecution of the Defendant See Ex Parte Parker 704 S.W. 2d 40. `, ' See supra Ziegenhagen 899 FZd at 940 "although not every conflict' of interest is so egregious as to constitute a violation of ' the 6th amendment. Government employment in a prosecutorial role against one defendant and subsequent representation of a defendant in a defens =e capacity is not proper'

2. Applicant also presented newly discovered evidence that proves his actual innocense, allows h1.m to toll the AEDPA deadlines, and enter into federal court._ y '

3. The Trial Court failed to obey the I. C. C. P. art. 11. 97 3 §c) "1t shall be the duty of the convicting court to decide whether there are controverted, previously unresolved facts material to the legality of the applicant' s confinement" "Shall" indi~ cates a mandatory duty. The Trial Court has no discretion in making this determination, it must be made. The Trial Court has failed to perform it' s mandatory duty in this case, and therefore Applicant requests this case be remanded back to

the trial Court with an order that it perform it’ s mandatory duty.

_Respectfully requested,
