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

of indecency with a child, sentenced to ten years’ imprisonment,  and four counts of aggravated
sexual assault of a child, sentenced to 20 years’ imprisonment for each count.  The Second Court of
Appeals affirmed his convictions.  Criswell v. State, No. 02-10-00074-CR (Tex. App.–Ft. Worth
August 31, 2011).
            On May 22, 2013, this Court remanded the -01 application to the trial court for findings of
fact and conclusions of law.  On June 24, 2013, the trial court signed findings of fact and conclusions
of law that were based on affidavits from trial counsel and the prosecutor.  The trial court

entire record, we deny relief.
