Description
On June 5, 1978, following his plea of guilty, applicant was convicted of the felony offense of possession of marihuana and punishment was assessed by the court at eight years in the Texas Department of Corrections. The trial court suspended applicants sentence and placed him on probation for a term of eight years. On April 3, 1981, in a petition for revocation, the State alleged that the applicant had violated the conditions of his probation by committing three offenses of misdemeanor marihuana possession. At an evidentiary hearing held on April 28, 1981, at which time applicant was represented by his retained counsel, Juan Martinez Gonzalez, the trial court found the States allegations to be true, revoked applicants probation and sentenced him to confinement in the penitentiary for a term of eight years. On direct appeal the order revoking applicants probation was affirmed by the Fourth Court of Appeals in Acosta v. State, 640 S.W.2d 381 (Tex.App.-San Antonio 1982), no petition for discretionary review.
