I. IV. PETITIONER STATES THAT ORAL ARGUMENT IS WAIVED UNLESS THE COURT DEEMS APPROPRIATE.

V. STATEMENT OF THE CASE

In May 2015, Petitioner filed his Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus, 38,597-C, seeking relief from the conviction of Aggravated Robbery in June 6, 1990, wherein, he received a 22-year sentence. Petitioner discharged the sentence in April 2013 according to TDCJ-CID records, and as a collateral consequence is being held in Cause no.2005-CR-8108, that the complained of Cause No.38,597-C was used to enhance to a 60-year sentence from 2nd-degree to lst-degree as a repeater under 12.42. _ . .. . , . ,, - -,. ., ^ c Petitioner has never cnallenged .the conviction as alledged by the District Court in its Dismissal Opinion. Petitioner states in May 16,2001,38,597-A,was denied(WR-48,960-02), as it was a challenge to a Parole violation on October 26,1999, Petitioner filed his 38,597-B, in September 26, wherein the 27-District Court dismissed under Sec.4. Petitioner filed 38,597-C, and on May 27, the District Court again Dismissed under Sec.4. (38,597-B - WR-48,960-03, 38,597-C - 48,960-06).

PROCEDURAL HISTORY VI.

Petitioner states that he has never been allowed to challenge the conviction of Cause no.38,597. In 1999 Petitioner's parole was violated and petitioner filed 38,597-A-decided on May 16,WR-48,960-02, After 38,597 was used to enhance the 2nd-degree felony in 2005-CR-8108, to lst-degree as a repeater, petitioner filed 38,597-B, as his first challenge to the conviction, in September 26, 2007, WR-48,960-03, Again, the 27th District Court dismissed under Sec.4., In May of 2015, petitioner filed 38,597-C, on May 27,2015 the District Court dismissed under Sec.4.

VII. GROUNDS FOR REVIEW

1. Whether Petitioner was afforded a full and fair review in the District Court

Habeas proceeding. 2. Whether the District Court has misconstrued the Article 11.07 Sec.4 (a),(l), (2), in this case.

3- Whether the District Court has decided an important question of State Law in a way that Conflicts with Applicable decisions of the COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS, and the SUPREME COURT of the UNITED STATES. 4. Whether the District Court's decision to dismiss 38>597-C under 11.07..Sec.4

<2> conflicts with the COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS decisions on the same issue. 5. Whether the 27th District Court has so far departed from the accepted

and usual course of Judicial proceedings, as to call for an excercise of the COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS' power of supervision

QUESTIONS FOR REVIEW

1. Article 11.07 Sec.6, contains mandatory language for notification, Does that include self represented Applicant? 2. The current Article 11.07 procedure does not allow for self represented Applicants' to submit Motions,present evidence or proofs to support their grounds for relief. Does that make mandatory for the District Court to perform Direct and Collateral Consequence Inquiries during fact-finding and Conclusions of Law? 3.Does Article 11.07 sec.4 bar fact-finding and conclusions of Law on grounds for relief such as: l>Trial Court lacked Jurisdiction,2>Ineffective Assistance of Counsel, 3>Prosecutorial Misconduct?

4.Petitioner's Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus alleged that he was denied a guaranteed United States Constitutional right which cannot be deemed from the record of the Cause: Does the Habeas Court violate the 14th United States

Constitutional Amendment applicable via the 5th Amendments Due Process Clause? 5.The 27th District Court has stated in its' Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law- I. Findings of Fact,#3"The Applicant did not Appeal his Conviction, but this is his third application for post-conviction Writ Habeas Corpus relief in this case, his first and second having been denied without written order'.' : In ground five of Petitioner's Application he assested that he was effectively denied a state created right of Appeal and the Attorney failed to withdraw properly.,: Does the this amount to a denial of a full and fair review, and Due Course of Law, and Due Process of the Texas and United States Constitutional Provisions, and amount to Egregious action on the part of the Habeas Court as it has literally answered for the Attorney, and completely overlooking the Docket sheet in the record of Cause No.38,597 wherein the Advisement of an Appeal was documented by the Presiding Judge Joe Carrol on June 6, 1990? IX. ARGUMENT and AUTHORITIES

Petitioner avers that 11.07 Section - 4(a) states:"If a subsequent application for writ of'habes corpus is filed after final disposition of an initial application challenging the same conviction, a court may not consider the merits of or grant relief based on the subsequent application unless the application contains sufficient specific facts establishing that" Petitioner stps there because that is in petitioner's Laymen opinion where The District Court has abused its' discretion. District Court has stated it
