ISSUES PRESENTED FOR REVIEW This Court should order Applicant's writ application filed and set for submission, on one or more of the issues presented, order the trial court to appoint licensed counsel to represent Applicant before this Court, ordér;thé pagties;to brief the issues, hold oral argument within 90 days of the order of the Court, as follows: (1) whether, as.a matter of first impression in this Court, the jury verdict of guilty of "burglary of a habitation with intent to commit aggravated assault and/or robbery, as \. charged in the indictment" is violativer of the "Stromberg rule in Stromberg v. California, 283 U.S. 359, 51 S.Ct. 532 (1931), where the Double Jeopardy'€lause forbids trial, conviction and multiple punishmentssfor the same offense, against the same complainant during the same criminal episode, where the verdict reached in this case rested exclusively on a provision of the Texas and United States Constitutions fordibs, requiring the entire verdicttbe set aside without regard to any harm analysis, nor the general rule of retaining the most serious offense and setting aside the other conviction, a double-jeopardy jurisprudence ruléhthat is contrary to Stromberg, and the Fifth Amendment, U.S. Constitution. (2) whether this Court should apply the traditional deference habeas standard to the habeas court's findings of fact, conclusions of law, where State habeas prosecuting attorney deliberately and unethically distorted§ mischaracterized and altered Applicant's habeas claims, and the habeas court's findings, and conclusions of law rest on such distortions of fact and law, and are-not therefore supported by the record on Applicant's clear and concise claims raising double jeopardy, racially discriminatory entrapment "sting operation," false impressions testimony, and ineffective assistance of counsel requiring reversal and remand to the trial court for resolution of Applicant'sdtrue constitutional claims, (3) whether State habeas prosecuting attorney MS. SHARON Y. (HHNSTexas Bar I.D.. #24051950 sharp "Machiavellian" pleading practice and her flagrant distortions, mischaracterizations, and alterations of Applicant's clear and concise habeas claims not subject to misinterprepation, constitutes professional unethical conduct by a member of the Bar that should be sanctionable and referred to the State Bar Grievance Committee for further investigation by this Court. (4) whether in adopting the State's'habeas prosecuting attorney£s distorted, mischaracterized, and altered , Applicant's habeas constitutional claims, as proposed by ~7 the State in the proposed findings Bf fact, conclusions of law and in the absence of independent inquiry by the habeas judge, taken together, constitutes constitutionally inadequate habeas procedures, deprivation of "protected liberty interests" not to be deprived of liberty without due process of law, and traditional principles at common law guiding the GREAT WRIT, all amount to unlawful suspension of the GREAT WRIT in violation of.the Texas Habeas Corpus Reform Act of 1995, Article 11.07, TEXAS CODE OF CRIMINAL j PROCEDURE, Article I, Section 12, Texas Constitution, and y Article I, Section 9, Cl@uue 2;'U.S. Constitution that should not be condoned by the Court otherwiseethe GREAT WRIT would be meaningless. ` IV. ISSUES NUMBE§AbNE (RESTATED) (Double Jeopardy and the Stromberg Rule) Applicant's "GROUND'ONE" at p§ge.b, WRlT APPLICATION, raises a clear and concise double jeopardy multiple punishments claim, not Subject to misinterpretation, in alleged violation of the double jeopardy principlessand protections of both the Texas and United States Constitutions, and the application of the "Stromberg Rule," as a matter of first impression in this Court. ld. Applicant asserts that he was illegally tried, convicted and suffered multiple punishments On a five (5) count indictment of burglary of a habitation forithe "same offense" allegedly invovling the same victim during the same criminal episode, with affirmative deadly weapon findings on all counts, as charged in the indictment. See APPLICANT”S-WRIT EXHIBIT "A" - INDICTMENT cAUsE No~'. 1'089402, w-RIT REcoRD. I_d. The trial judge charged the`jury disjunctively On all five (5) counts. EXHIBIT "B" - COURT'S CHARGE. The jury returnedda "guilty_verdictv on all counts in a general-verdict holding: WE THE JURY FIND THE DEFENDANT ALBIN `A"DAL`IN ZELAYA-ZELAYA"G`UILTY:","OF BURGLARY OF HABITATION WITH THE INTENT TO COMMIT AGGRAVATED ASSAULT AND/OR ROBBERY, AS CHARGED IN THE INDICTMENT;;£§mphasis added); SEE EXHIBIT "B." On punishment, the same jury answered the SPEClAL lSSUEnon affirmative deadly weapon finding saying: WE DO, as to that finding. See.Ex Parte Hill, 208 SW 3d 462, 463 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006)Cfliberty interests" affected by affirmative deadly weapon finding). SEE EXHIBIT'"C" - SPECIAL _ISSUE CHARGE. The jury sentenced Applicant to life imprisonment, a $10,000100 fine, and the trial judge added $550.00 in court costs in its JUDGMENT and SENTENCE, all to be runned "concurrently." SEE EXHI_BTS "D" and "E*:" l_d. The gravamen of Burglary of a Habitationnis the entry without the effective consent of theeowner, with the requisite mental state, and is the "allowable unit of prosecution." Ex Parte Cavazos, 203 SW 3d 333, 335-37 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006); Moreover, this Court has noted that "aggrav§&ed assault" is a lesser included offense of "robbery," an assaultive offense1 See e.g. Young v. State, 283 SW 3d 854, 862 (Tex;Crim.App. 2009)(robbery is an assaultive offense); Byrd v. State, 336 SW 3d 242, 251, n. 43 (Tex.Crim.App. 2011)che unit of prosecution of the offense of robbery is the victim). Further, in determining whether there have been multiple punish- ments for the "same offense," the Court applies the "same elements" test from Blockburger v. United St§tes, 284 U.S. 299, 304, 52 S.Ct. 180 (1932), as the starting point in the analysis of a multiple punishments double-jeopardy claim. See Ex Parte Ervin, 991 SW 2d 804, 807 (Tex.Crim.App; 1999)(€EI]he Blockburger test cannot authorize two punishments where the legislature clearly intended only one"); accord, Gonzales v. State, 304 SW 3d 838, 845-46 (Tex.CrimrApp. 2010). jeopardy purposes, the Court will focus on the elements alleged in the chargingfinstrument. Bigon v. State, 252 SW 3d 360, 310 (Tex. Crim.App. 2008). "[U]nder the cognate-pleadings approach adopted by this Court, double-jeopardy challenges should be made to offenses that have differingg elements under Blockburger,'ifFYhe`§amef£ae§s required are alleged in the indictment. ld. citing Hall v. State, '3225§Sw3d 524 (Tex.Crim»2007). See also KELEER, PRESIDING JUDGE, concurring opinion, in Ex Parte Denton, 399 SW 3d at 577 noting contradictory of decisions on double-jeopardy jurisprudence "not a model of-clarity," citing Gonzales v. State, 8 SW 3d 640, at 642-43 (Tex.Crim.App. 2000) ); Gonzales, 8 SW 3d at 646 (MEYERS, PRICE, JOHNSON, dissenting arguing application of the "Stromberg rule" to applicant's double'jeopady claims, overruled in dicta by subsequent decision in Ex Parte Denton, 399 SW 3d 540 ). In the case at bar, as plead in Applicant's five (5) count indictment, all charges alleged Vaggrav§ted-assault" and/or "robbery" with "use of a deadly weapon." EXIBIT "A" - INDICTMENT. Thus, as See Arcicle 37.09(1), TEXAS PENAL coDE; Girdy v.-StaEe, 213 Sw 3d 315, 319 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006). Further, there is no clear legislative intent to punish the offenses separately and trying@ convicting and l subjecting Applicant to multiple punishments in this case, with an "affiramtive deadly weapon finding," dndeETArticle 42.12§ 3(g), TEX. CODE CRIM. PRO., SEE EXHIBIT "E" - JUDGMENT OF CONVICTION BY JURY, Wri£ Redord, Id., for the "criminal act" that is the subject of Applicant's prosecution is barred. See Ex Parte Cav§zos, 203 SW 3d 333 (T€X~Crim-App- 2006)Hconvicting.applicant of two counts of burglary of habitation in a single unlawful entry violated his rights under the 5th Amendment's Double Jeopardy Clause of U.S. Constitution). However, as a matter of first impression in this Court, as a general rule when a defendant is convicted of two offenses and those convictions violate double-jeopardy protections, the conviciion for the most serious offense is retained, and the other conviction is set aside. ld. However, under Stromberg v.`California, this Court must set aside the entire verdict in this caseaunder the constitutional rule that,n"[w]here a provision of the Constitu- tion forbids conviction on a particular grou§d[here doubie`jeopardy under the 5th Amendment], the constitutional guarantee is violated by a general verdict that may have rested on that ground [here the jury's guilty verdicti"with intent to commit aggravated assault and/or robbery], See.also e.g. Morehead v. State, 807 SW 2d 577 (Tex.Crim.App. 1991)Hreversing entire jury verdict, two count theoriesxof conviction under Stromberg rule on possibility jury may have convicted appellant on unconstitutionally invalid charge, count as charged in indictment); See also Ex Parte Craves, 805 SW 790 (Tex.Crim.App. 1991)Gapplicant failed to establish jury's consideration on second.count, and their ultimate verdict and sentence on that count contributed to the sentence imposed on count One); See also e.g. Mills v. Maryland, 486 U.S. 367, 375, 108 S.Ct. (1988); Zant v. Stephens, 462 U.S. 862, 103 S.Ct. 2733 (1983)(applying Stromberg rule). "[W]henma double-jeopardy violation has occurred, a writ of habeas corpus is a proper venue through which to challenge the error." Ex Parte Milner, 354 SW 3d 502, 522 (Tex.Crim.App; 2013). Habeas collateral review is appropriate, when, as in the case at bar, (1) the undisputed facts show the doublejjeopardy violation clearly apparent on the face of;the record (APPLICANT'S WRIT EXHIBITS A THROUGH l), and (2) when enforcement of usual rules of procedural default serve no legitimate state interest. Ex Parte Denton, 399 SW 540; KELLER, PRESIDING JUDGE, concurring opinion, in Ex Pa§te Denton, 399 SW 3d at 547-558 (noting conflicts in courts of appeals on double-jeopardy jurisprudences"nt]hat we need to address in an appropriate case" ld at 553). Here, on the face of the record and`APPLICANT}S WRIT EXHIBITS A (INDICTMENT), B (COURTmS CHARGE), 633 D, and E'(§URY'S VERDICT, SPECIAL ISSUE/sENTENcE, JUDGMENT, sENTtNCE), shows the doubl¢sjeopardy violation and applicant”s convictions'cannbt stand under the Fifth Amendment, U.S. Constitution and the §££omberg rule in Stromberg v. California, 283 U.S. 359, 51 S.Ct. 532, on any count, as made applicable to the States by virtuee of the Fourteenth Amendment;in Benton v. Maryland, 395 U.S. 784, 89 S.Ct. 2056 (1969). B. ISSUE NUMBER TWOv(RESTATED) (Stateis Misrepresentations.of Claims and Deference) This Court has stated that, "[o]n postconviction review of habeas corpus applications, the convicting court is the 'original_factfinder,' and [this Court] is the ultimate factfinder." Ex Parte.Chavez, 371 SW 3d 200, 207 (Tex.Crim.App. 2012). Although the Court will "generally defer to and accept the convicting court's findings of fact and con- clusions of law," this-Court may exercise its authority "to make contrary or alternative findings and conclusions" when its "independ- ent review of the record reveals that the trial judge's findings and conclusions are not supported by the record." ld.(internal quotations marks and citations omitted); See also Ex Parte Flores, 387 SW 3d 626, 634-35 (Tex.Crim.App. 2012)(Court of Criminal Appeals acts as "the ultimate fact finder" when the lower court's findings "do not resolve the necessary factual issues"). In Ex Parte Reed, 271 SW 3d 690 (Tex.Crim.App. 2008) the Court grappled with the applicable standard of deference review owed the trial judge's factfindings and conclusions of law, where a few of the factfindings were either unsupported by the record, or appeared, in some fashion, to be misleading, after an evidentiary hearing heldain the habeas court below, based on "conflicting_testimony." ld. at 726. The §§ed Court rejected "[a]ny type of litmus test for determining whenihnd endernwhatwcircumstances-the level of overall deference may be af£eeféd:byinumeroes:unsupported§findingsrand:conclusions;Hal§ at 728.7Aithough after independent review of the §§§d`trial judge's findings of fact, the Court found F[a] select few of these findings" whichmwereeinconsistent with the-record, or were "[s]omewhat mis- leading," but irrelevant to the courtls resolution of the legal claims, and went on to adopt the trial judge's findings and conclusions and denied habeas relief to the applicant on his constitutional claims Of actual innocence and suppression of evidence. ld. at 728-751. However, the Reed Court added: "[T]he case may arise where the nature and number of unsupported findings and conclusions may render the findings and conclusions wholly unreliable and beyond repair. Under such circumstances, we may elect to take it upon ourselves to conduct all of the factfinding and to issue a ruling explaining our application of the law to the facts. However, we note that itwwill be under only the rarest and most extrordinary of circumstances that we will refuse to accord any deference to the findings and conclusions as a whole." Ex Parte Reed, 271 SW 3d at 728. The Court went on to be critical of the habeas procedures conducted in the court below, attributing said "inaccuracy" "[t]o the fact that the State generated the proposed findings and they are therefore wholly representative of the State's interpretation of the evidence," admonishing trial judges to act'*[als a neutral arbiter" and to "[m]ore carefully scrutinize the Statels proposed findings to ensure that they accurately reflect the evidence in the record before adopting them verbatim." ld. at 729. See also KELLER, PRESIDING JUDGE, 'concurring but disagreeing with portion of Courtls opinion on issue 4 of "deference,* Ex Parte Reed, 271 SW 3d at 751~754. ln the case at bar, State's habeas attorney MS.

Applicant's claims presented controverted, previously unresolved facts material to the legality Of his confinement under Article 11u07, § 3(d), TEX. CODE CRIM. PRO. However, with her unethical twist of her "Machiavellian pen," approved and adopted by the rubber-stamp trial`judge, State's habeas counsel disappeared Applicant's claims into thin air, and Applicantls factualv and legal claims remain unresolved. This case is a case "[w]here the nature and number of unsupported findings and conclusions (have) rendered the findings and conclusions wholly unreliable and beyond repair." Ex Parte Reed, 271 SW 3d at 728; And, this is a case where this Court must “Er]efuse to accord any deference whatsoever to the findings and conclusions as a whole" for they are unsupportedrby thezrecord as a whole, are incomplete and unreliable and are biased and deliberate and unethical misrepresentations committed by State's Habeas Prosecuting Attorney MS.

Butler, 886 F. 2d 111, 113-14 (Sth cir. 1989). D. ISSUE NUMBER FOUR'(RESTATED) (Constitutionally adequate Habeas Procedures) The U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly rejected suggestions by government to restrict, or suspend the writ of habeas corpus, describ- ing the vital function the GREAT WRIT has played throughout English and U.S. history: "[T]he;Framers viewed freedom from unlawful restraint as a fundamental precept of liberty, [recognizing the writ] as a vital instrument to secure thatifreedoma" quoting Boumediene v. Bush, 553 U.S._¥, 128 S.Ct. 2229 (2008). The Court has recognized that, "[F]ree- dom from bodily restraint has always been at the core of the liberty protected by the Due Process Clause from arbitrary governmental action.' quoting Foucha v. Louisiana, 504 U.S. 715 80, 112 S.Ct. 1780 (1992). "[T]he privilege of habeas corpus entitles the prisoner to a meaningful opportunity to demonstrate that he is being held pursuant to 'the erroneous application or interpretation of relevant law [.] These are easily identified attributes to any constitutionallyyadequate habeas corpus proceeding." Boumediene, 128 S.Ct. at 2266. 15. Further, the Supreme CoUrt has admonished the judiciary that a prisoner's first habeas writ petition is a "[s]efious matter implica- ting interests in human-liberty," requiring courts give careful scrutiny to said petition in the writ's role in safeguarding con- stitutional rights to redress claims of wrongful imprisonment. Lgncha£ v. Thdmas, 517 U.S. 314, 324 Ll996); See also Ex Parte Ca££, 511 SW 2d 523, 525 (Tex.Crim.App.`1976). To safeguard those "protected liberty interests" not to be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law, which is at the "core of habeas corpus," the Court in §Hamdi v. Rumsfeld, 542 U.S,, 507, 124 S.Ct. 2633 (2004) adopted the procedures in Mathews v. Eldridge, 424 U.S. 319, 96 S.Ct. 893 (1976) to make the writ more efficacious in order to protect these core interests on claims of illegal restraint and detention. See also Ex Parte Geiken, 28 SW 3d 553, 558 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006)§applying two-step inquiry in determining if "liberty interests" exist and due process procedures to determine if they are sufficient to protect those interests). In the case at bar, State's Habeas prosecuting Attorney MS. SHARON Y. CHU, unethically misrepresenting and distorting Applicant's constitutional claims on habeas in his "first; writ petition§" and then "proposing" findings of fact, conclusions of law on such disort- ions, the trial judge adopted, blindly,»and without careful and independent scrutiny ofithe facts and the law, constitutes constitu- tionally inadequate habeas procedures and the unlawful suspension of the GREAT WRIT in violation of Article 11.07, TEX. CODE CRIM. PRO.§RArticle ly Section 12, Texas Constitution, and Article I, Section 9, Clause 2, U.S. Constitution. 16. V.
