IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS



NO. WR-64,327-01




EX PARTE KESHA LATRICE JENKINS, Applicant




ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 05-01970-CRF IN THE 361ST  DISTRICT COURT
FROM BRAZOS COUNTY




            Per curiam.


O R D E R

            Pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, the
clerk of the trial court transmitted to this Court this application for a writ of habeas corpus.  Ex parte
Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967).  Applicant was convicted of one count of
robbery and one count of theft. She was sentenced to ten years’ imprisonment for the robbery and
two years’ state jail imprisonment for the theft.  
            In her present application, Applicant raises five grounds.  This application, however, presents
a more serious question.  This Court’s records reflect that Applicant has filed eight prior applications
pertaining to these convictions.  It is obvious from the record that Applicant continues to raise issues
that have been presented and rejected in previous applications or that should have been presented
in previous applications.  The writ of habeas corpus is not to be lightly or easily abused.  Sanders
v. U.S., 373 U.S. 1 (1963); Ex parte Carr, 511 S.W.2d 523 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974).  Because of her
repetitive claims, we hold that Applicant’s claims are barred from review under Article 11.07, § 4,
and are waived and abandoned by her abuse of the writ.  This application is dismissed.
            Therefore, we instruct the Honorable Abel Acosta, Clerk of the Court of Criminal Appeals,
not to accept or file the instant application for a writ of habeas corpus, or any future application
pertaining to these convictions unless Applicant is able to show in such an application that any
claims presented have not been raised previously and that they could not have been presented in a
previous application for a writ of habeas corpus.  Ex parte Bilton, 602 S.W.2d 534 (Tex. Crim. App.
1980).
            Copies of this order shall be sent to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Correctional
Institutions Division and Pardons and Paroles Division.
