IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

NO. WR-76,129-02 EX PARTE ELIZABETH REYNOLDS, Applicant

ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

CAUSE NO. 05-CRF-0071 IN THE 105TH DISTRICT COURT

FROM KLEBERG 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 criminal solicitation of capital murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. The Thirteenth Court of Appeals affirmed her conviction. Reynolds v. State, No. 13-05-00643-CR (Tex. App.-Corpus Christi-Edinburg Aug. 2, 2007, no pet.).

Applicant contends that her trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance. After holding a live evidentiary hearing, the trial court made findings of fact and conclusions of law and recommended that we deny relief. This Court has undertaken an independent review of all the evidence in the record. Based on the trial court's findings of fact and conclusions of law as well as this Court's independent review of the entire record, we deny relief.
