I am writing you in regards to receiving a copy of the Petition for Discretionary review that was filed 11/18/2015.

1 would like to advise you that I previously requested this copy when I filed this Petition in the cover letter to you. I as well informed you that this was my only copy and that I was indigent and could/tflifford to copy the petition additionally the prison unit doesn't have a free copy service for pro se petitions. Currently for the durantion of my stay in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Institutional Division I have had no funds. Furthermore, I was declared indigent by the court upon receiving a Appellate Counsel.

Mr. Acosta or assistant clerk would you please be so kind as to send me the copy requested. I thank you so much for all your help and I look forward to hearing from you at my address listed below.
