                                            ORDER

       Applicant was convicted of delivery of a controlled substance in a drug free zone and

sentenced to twenty-five years’ imprisonment. Applicant filed this application for a writ of habeas

corpus in the county of conviction, and the district clerk forwarded it to this Court. See TEX . CODE

       On November 18, 2019, the trial court entered an order designating issues. This application

findings of fact and conclusions of law.

       The trial court shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law within ninety days from
the date of this order. The district clerk shall then immediately forward to this Court the trial court’s

findings and conclusions and the record developed on remand, including, among other things,

affidavits, motions, objections, proposed findings and conclusions, orders, and transcripts from

hearings and depositions. See TEX . R. APP. P. 73.4(b)(4). Any extensions of time must be requested

by the trial court and obtained from this Court.
