Martinez -2-
On May 20, 2004, in response to letters applicant sent to the judge of the convicting court, a hearing was held in which applicant, in the presence of counsel, freely, knowingly, and voluntarily waived any further proceedings in his case. Applicant was examined by a psychiatrist and a psychologist and found competent to waive review of his conviction by way of this instant action.
The convicting court has entered findings of fact and conclusions of law and found applicant is competent to withdraw his habeas corpus application. We find the convicting court's findings and conclusions are supported by the record and accordingly dismiss the instant action.
IT IS SO ORDERED THIS THE 13TH DAY OF APRIL, 2005.
