                            Fourth Court of Appeals
                                   San Antonio, Texas
                                         August 12, 2016

                                      No.  04-92-00584-CR

                                    Freeman, Anthony RAY,
                                          Appellant

                                                v.

                                     The STATE of Texas,
                                           Appellee

                From the 25th Judicial District Court, Guadalupe County, Texas
                                 Trial Court No.  91-1408-CR
                           Honorable Fred Moore, Judge Presiding


                                         ORDER
       Appellant has filed a pro se motion requesting a copy of his trial transcripts filed in this
appeal.  Appellant appears to be requesting these record for purposes of pursuing a post-
conviction writ of habeas corpus.  In order to obtain a free copy of the record, appellant would
need to file a motion requesting the record in the trial court in which the conviction was obtained
and demonstrate that his post-conviction claim is not frivolous and that the record is needed to
decide the issues presented.  See United States v. MacCollom, 426 U.S. 317, 326 (1976);
Escobar v. State, 880 S.W.2d 782, 783 (Tex.  App.—Houston [1st Dist.]  1993, no pet.). 
Appellant’s motion is DENIED without prejudice to seeking relief in the proper court.
