        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 murder and

aggravated assault and sentenced to imprisonment for life and twenty years, respectively. The Fifth

Court of Appeals affirmed his convictions. Luckett v. State, No. 05-11-00633-CR (Tex.

App.—Dallas 2012, pet. struck).

        On August 12 , 2013, the trial court signed an order designating issues. The habeas record

has been forwarded to this Court prematurely. We remand this application to the 422nd District
Court of Kaufman County to allow the trial judge to complete an evidentiary investigation and enter

findings of fact and conclusions of law.

       This application will be held in abeyance until the trial court has resolved the fact issues. The

issues shall be resolved within 90 days of this order. A supplemental transcript containing all

affidavits and interrogatories or the transcription of the court reporter’s notes from any hearing or

deposition, along with the trial court’s supplemental findings of fact and conclusions of law, shall

be forwarded to this Court within 120 days of the date of this order. Any extensions of time shall
