ORDER
Applicant was convicted of murder and sentenced to twenty years’ imprisonment. The
Fourteenth Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction. Martinez v. State, No. 14-15-00731-CR (Tex.
App.—Houston [14th Dist] Nov. 17,2016) (not designated for publication). Applicant filed this
application for a writ of habeas corpus in the county of conviction, and the district clerk forwarded
it to this Court. See TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC. art. 11.07.
On December 11, 2018, the trial court entered an order designating issues. The district clerk
properly forwarded this application to this Court under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure

conclusions of law. We remand this application to the trial court to complete its evidentiary
investigation and make findings of fact and conclusions of law.
The trial court shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law within ninety days from
the date of this order. The district clerk shall then immediately forward to this Court the trial court’s
findings and conclusions and the record developed on remand, including, among other things,
affidavits, motions, objections, proposed findings and conclusions, orders, and transcripts from
hearings and depositions. See TEX . R. APP . P. 73.4(b)(4). Any extensions of time must be requested
by the trial court and obtained from this Court.
