IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS



NO. WR-78,452-01




EX PARTE FRANCISCO BAZALDUA, Applicant




ON APPLICATION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
CAUSE NO. 2001CR6193-W1
IN THE 144TH DISTRICT COURT FROM BEXAR 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 indecency with
a child by contact. His direct appeal was dismissed. Bazaldua v. State, No. 04-02-00922-CR (Tex.
App.—San Antonio del. Feb. 12, 2003).
            Applicant alleges that his no contest plea was involuntary, citing to Padilla v. Kentucky, 559
U.S. 356 (2010). Because the holding in Padilla is not retroactive, Applicant’s writ application is
denied. See Chaidez v. United States, 132 S.Ct. 2101 (2012); Ex parte De Los Reyes, 392 S.W.3d
675 (Tex. Crim. App. 2013).
