Ex parte Puckett

WOODLEY, Judge.

Relator, an inmate of the penitentiary, attacks as void the life sentence pronounced against him in El Paso County.

A prior application for discharge by relator was denied in Ex parte Puckett, 161 Texas Cr. Rep. 51, 274 S.W. 2d 696.

After relator had received credit for ten years on his sentence he again applied to this court for writ of habeas corpus, which was denied by order dated January 31, 1957, as follows:

“A reexamination of the record in the light of the application filed after relator was credited with ten years served on his sentence convinces us that the relator is attempting to have us pass upon the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain his life sentence.

“The indictment contained the allegation that the conviction in the New Mexico State Court on July 3, 1945, was final prior to the commission of the offense for which he was convicted in the United States District Court on September 26, 1947.

“For this court to look beyond these allegations, in all things regular on their face, and entertain proof at this time that such allegations were not based upon fact would be doing exactly what we have consistently held that we might not do; that is, pass upon the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the conviction in a collateral habeas corpus proceeding.

“The application is denied.”

A subsequent application was ordered filed and has been considered by all members of the court, and the same conclusion has been reached.

In Ex parte Daniels, 158 Texas Cr. Rep. 2, 252 S.W. 2d 586, the indictment showed on its face that one of the prior felony convictions was not available for enhancement of punishment purposes. The holding is not here applicable, the allegations of the indictment under which relator was convicted being regular and sufficient.

There is no statement of facts before us and this' is a col*589lateral attack upon the conviction. The contention that in fact the New Mexico state conviction was not final prior to the commission of the offense which was the basis of the Federal court conviction cannot now be sustained.

The application is denied.
