ORDER


This is a subsequent application for a writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, Article 11.071, Section 5. On March 23, 1999, a jury convicted applicant of the offense of capital murder committed on August 28, 1991. The jury answered the special issues submitted pursuant to Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Article 37.071, and the trial court, accordingly, set punishment at death. This Court affirmed applicant's conviction and sentence on direct appeal. Carpenter v. State, AP-73,442 (Tex. Crim. App. Oct. 24, 2001). On August 20, 2000, applicant filed his initial application for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to Article 11.071. We denied relief. Ex parte Carpenter, No. 49,656-01 (Tex. Crim. App. Dec. 19, 2001). Applicant filed his first subsequent application for a writ of habeas corpus on August 25, 2003, and this Court dismissed the application. Ex parte Carpenter, No. 49,656-02 (Tex. Crim. App. Oct. 1, 2003). A second subsequent application was filed with the convicting court on April 19, 2004, and it was also dismissed by this Court. Ex parte Carpenter, No. 49,656-03 (Tex. Crim. App. March 7, 2007). We have reviewed the application and find that the allegations do not satisfy the requirements of Article 11.071, Section 5. Therefore, we dismiss this application. IT IS SO ORDERED THIS THE 11TH DAY OF MAY, 2011.
