Anthony Norman # 1718789 / WYNNE 310 FM 2821 Huntsville, TX 77349

Hon. Justice Barbara P. Hervey Texas Court of Criminal Appeals P.O. Box 12308

Austin, TX 78711-2308

RECEIVED IN COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS SEP 022015 08/25/2015 Re: WR-76, 389-08 11.07 Writ of Habeas Corpus

ADEI ACOSIA, Clen.

Dear Justice Hervey

Today I received a white card indicating the T.C.C.A will not conduct a hearing in my case. The white card states the ruling is based on the trial court's finding of facts. However in my case no facts related to my claims were adduced by the trial court. The trial court simply adopted a one sentence general denial from the District Attorney's office asserting that even if my claims were true that I would not be entitled to relief. That is a very whit wild statement considering (07) claims were raised including (83) claims of In effective Assistance of Counsel (most involving failure to object to closing argument that was clearly outside of the trial record, (3) Brady Violations where Exculpatory information was hidden/ suppressed, (1) claim of ACTUAL INNOLENCE, (1) NO EVIDENCE CLARM, (2) INCHARGE ARGUMENT CLAMS,

*2 (4) Prosecutorial Mis conduct claims, (3) Judicial Visitation claims, etc. ... The fact that a hearing was never conducted to even have my trial, or appellate attorney's comments on why they. drd, or did not do what they were legally required to do rings of a failure to actually consider the merits of the case at all. At the very least my Actual Innocence class should have been afforded a fair hearing since I have provided the affidavits multiple times to the District Court, and T.C.C.A.

All that being said I am disappointed in the handling of this case, and would humbly request you, or other members of the T.C.C.A. provide for a re-hearing. Most if not all of the challenged statements are in the application itself. I feel I have not been given a legitimate review by the Court. Adopting the opinion of a Judge whose conduct is the very thing that is being challenged with our ANY meaningful input or statements is not a review.

Texas Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 216 provided for Judge Bradley independently to stop the misconduct which occured all through my trial and especially during closing arguments. Per T.R.A.P Rule (6) 79.1, 79.2 I am aware I can not ask for a re-hearing directly, but I think given

*3 the circumstantes, and the overwhelming amount of evidence that it is appropriate. That being the case: I am asking for your oversight in this matter. From my reading a member of the Court can request a re-heorng. People in this state should not be convicted for crimes which did not occur, nor which they could not have possibly committed. I don't have an invisible car that drives 650 mph . People in this state should not be Bullied in to submission just because they have friends in the District Attorneys office. Right is Right, and wrong is wrong.

Thank you, Hats Anthony Norman P.S. It is really a shame to me that when a person is really innocent certain groups try to protect themselves by attempting to hiyhjack the judicial process. The attorney's in this case don't even work for the D.A's office any more. They don't even appear to be practicing Law. There is overwhelming evidence of my innocence. This is not even a close case. I have a family, kids, and alife I would like to get back to be fore it is gone. 6 years have already been taken for nothing.

*4 By the way: In the context of a ruling it is not clear who made it, or signed ofC. I am sure they were aware there is a pending cause of action in the United States supreme Court challenging Brooks v. State, 323 S.W. 3d 893 naming Sharon Keller as the respondent: Anthony Whirney Norman v. Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, ETAL from USOC 4:14-CV-74. It appears the S.Ct. is preparing to grant certoria. The fact that the T.C.C.A has passed on yet another opportunity to restore a criminal de Fendants right to appellate review via factual Review is wrong. This 11.07 raised the issue again, and is erocily the type of case the law, and the constitution were created to address.

I will not stop untill I get a fair review of this case. It would appear the T.C.C.A is trying to bury any and all issues raised in this case under a deep rock in a hole out of sight. The case had been sitting in Austin since 4/23/2015, and was decided by refusing to decide 08/19/2015.
