Ex Parte                                §       In the Texas Court of

Eliseo Rivera, Jr.                      §       Criminal Appeals
                                  *     §       Austin, Texas

              Applicant's Motion for Stay of Proceedings

To the Honorable Justice(s) of Said Court:

       Comes Now, Eliseo Rivera, Jr. T.D.C.J. #1617277, hereafter

Applicant, Pro Se, and humbly requests Permission for Leave of Court

in Order to file .Applicant's Motion for Stay of Proceedings pursuant
to the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, Rules 10.1, 10.2, and 52.

10..                                                         x

       In support of Applicant's request for temporary relief, Applicant
brings forth before this Honorable Court the following facts:

                                        I.

       On March 25,2015, the 222nd Judicial DistrictjCourt of Deaf Smith
County, Texas,' (trial court) , filed it's Findings of 'Fact, and Conclu
sions of Law regarding Applicant's Writ of Habeas Corpus Art. 1.1.07
via Affidavits from trial counsel, Mr. Chris Hesse, and Appellate

Counsel, Mr. Daivd Martinez.

       Thereafter, Applicant received his copy of the trial court's

determinations on March 30,2015.            Upon Applicant's review of Said

trial court's findings, Applicant discovered severe discrepancies of
constitutional magnitude.
                                    II.

       For instance, Applicant contends in his Art.   11.07, Ground One

that, the State engaged in Prosecutorial Misconduct.        In addition,

Applicant has presented a persuasive argument supported by evidence

embeded in the record accompanied by the proper authoritative State

Statutes, and State, and Federal case law to support his contention.

While on the other hand,    trial court contends that,    the State did

not engage in Prosecutorial Misconduct.      But, the trial court fails

to provide or direct this court to any proper State Statute nor does

it cite any proper case law to support, it's Findings.

                                   III.

       Therefore, Applicant requests that this Honorable Court grant

this Stay for 14 days in order to afford Applicant an opportunity

to exercise his 14th U.S. Const. Amend. Right, Due Process of the

Law.     And,.;afford Applicant an opportunity to timely submit his

Rebuttal along with accompanying Motions contesting the trial court's

Findings.     So that this Honorable Court may take into account Appli

cant's evidence before it renders a decision on Applicant's Art. 11.
                                                      I
07.

                                 Prayer

       Wherefore, All Things Considered, Applicant prays that,    this

Honorable Court grant Applicant permission for leave of court in

order to file Applicant's motion for stay of proceedings for 14 days,
and any other appropriate relief this Honorable Court deems Applicant

is entitled to.     Bayoil Supply., and. Trading v. Jorgen Jahre Shipping,
