Opinion
IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. WR-76,766-01
EX PARTE MARCO ANTONIO MUNIZ, Applicant
ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 2004CR6299-W1
IN THE 227TH DISTRICT COURT FROM BEXAR 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 possession with intent to deliver 4 to 200 grams of cocaine. There was no direct appeal.
Applicant alleges that his no contest plea was involuntary, citing to Padilla v. Kentucky, 559 U.S. 356 (2010). Because the holding in Padilla is not retroactive, Applicant’s writ application is denied. See Chaidez v. United States, 132 S.Ct. 2101 (2012); Ex parte De Los Reyes, 392 S.W.3d 675 (Tex. Crim. App. 2013).
