Article 11.071, Tex. Code Crim. Proc.
	In May 2004, applicant was convicted of the offense of capital murder.  The jury
answered the special issues submitted pursuant to Article 37.071, Tex. Code Crim. Proc.,

validity of his conviction and resulting sentence.  The trial court did not hold an evidentiary
hearing.  The trial court adopted the State's proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law
recommending that the relief sought be denied. 
	This Court has reviewed the record with respect to the allegations made by applicant. 
We adopt the trial judge's findings and conclusions.  Based upon the trial court's findings
and conclusions and our own review, we deny relief. 
	IT IS SO ORDERED THIS THE 25TH DAY OF FEBRUARY, 2009.
