       Applicant was convicted of attempted capital murder, aggravated kidnapping, aggravated

application for a writ of habeas corpus in the county of conviction, and the district clerk forwarded

it to this Court. See TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC. art. 11.07.

                                                                                                   2

the entire record, we deny relief.
