                           Re:   Nicole Dawn Holland v. The State of Texas; 03-14-00577-CR; In The
                                 Court of Appeals for the Third District of Texas—Austin

              Dear Ms. Holland,

                      Enclosed you will find a copy of the judgment and memorandum opinion of the
              Third Court of Appeals at Austin affirming the revocation of your probation. I am sorry
              that the decision of the appellate court is not favorable for you. The court has also
              granted my motion to withdraw as your counsel. Therefore, I am closing your file in my
              office and will not be doing anything further on your appeals.

                       My appointment does not include filing a petition for discretionary review with
               the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals to appeal the decision of the Third Court of
               Appeals. You have a right to file a petition for discretionary review with the Texas Court
               of Criminal Appeals under Rule 68 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure (the Texas
               Rules of Appellate Procedure, which sets out the rules for filing a petition for
               discretionary review with the Court of Criminal Appeals, should be available to you in
               the prison law library). The address for the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals is P. O.
               Box 12308, Austin, Texas 78711. If you desire to do this you will need to either hire an
               attorney to do this for you or do this yourself (this is called pro se). This must be done
               within thirty days of the date of the Court of Appeals judgment. However, you may
               request a sixty-day extension, which is usually granted (a first extension is generally
               routinely granted by the Court). Unlike your first appeal to the Court of Appeals, the
               Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, which is the highest appellate court for criminal
               matters in the state, is not required to accept your appeal.

                       There may be issues in your case that you can raise by a writ of habeas corpus. I
               am not appointed to do a writ for you and you are not entitled to an appointed lawyer for
               a writ. You will need to hire a lawyer to help you with a writ or pursue it yourself.

                       I have previously provided you with a complete copy of the reporter's record and
               clerk's record in your case. You may also obtain your record from the Burnet County
               District Clerk, 1701 E. Polk, Suite 90, Burnet, TX 78611-2757.
                                              Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can be of any assistance.

                                                                                          With kindest regards,

                                                                                          Tracy
