IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS




NOS. WR-64,923-03, -05 & -06


EX PARTE MELVIN CHARLES PAUL, Applicant


ON APPLICATIONS FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

CAUSE NO. 844969 IN THE 174TH DISTRICT COURT

FROM HARRIS 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 these applications for a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant was convicted of capital murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. The Fourteenth Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction. Paul v. State, No. 14-00-00937-CR (Tex. App.-Houston [14th Dist.] January 10, 2002, no pet.).

In the -03 application, Applicant argued that he could not file a meaningful habeas application without a copy of the trial record, and in the -05 application, he argued that his First and Fourteenth Amendment rights to file a meaningful habeas application had been violated. On September 19, 2007, and January 23, 2008, respectively, we dismissed these applications under Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.07, § 4. We now withdraw these dispositions on our own motion and deny these applications.

In the -06 application, Applicant repeats that his constitutional rights to file a meaningful habeas application have been violated. He also urges this Court to order the district clerk in Harris County to send him file-stamped copies of his application and attached exhibits. We also deny the -06 application.

Accordingly, these applications are denied.
