        Pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, the

manslaughther and sentenced to imprisonment for twenty years.

        On November 20, 2014, an order designating issues was signed by the trial court. And, on

Dallas County to allow the trial judge to complete an evidentiary investigation and enter findings of

fact and conclusions of law.
