Per curiam.
ORDER
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 robbery and
sentenced to twenty years’ imprisonment. The First Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction.
Johnson v. State, No. 01-13-00298-CR (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] Mar. 6, 2014) (not
designated for publication).
This is a subsequent application for a writ of habeas corpus. TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC. art.
11.07, § 4. Applicant contends that the previous application was filed without his permission.

In these circumstances, additional facts are needed. As we held in Ex parte Rodriguez, 334
S.W.2d 294, 294 (Tex. Crim. App. 1960), the trial court is the appropriate forum for findings of fact.
The trial court may use any means set out in TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC. art. 11.07, § 3(d).
If the trial court elects to hold a hearing, it shall determine whether Applicant is indigent.
If Applicant is indigent and wishes to be represented by counsel, the trial court shall appoint an
attorney to represent him at the hearing. TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC. art. 26.04.
The trial court shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law as to whether Michael
Allyn Kennedy was authorized to file the previous application on Applicant’s behalf. The trial court
shall also make any other findings of fact and conclusions of law that it deems relevant and
appropriate to the disposition of this application.
This application will be held in abeyance until the trial court has resolved the fact issues. The
issues shall be resolved within 90 days of this order. A supplemental transcript containing all
affidavits and interrogatories or the transcription of the court reporter’s notes from any hearing or
deposition, along with the trial court’s supplemental findings of fact and conclusions of law, shall
be forwarded to this Court within 120 days of the date of this order. Any extensions of time shall
be obtained from this Court.
