OPINION
DALLY, Judge.
This is a post-conviction writ of habeas corpus proceeding. Art. 11.07, V.A.C.C.P.
On May 2, 1977, the petitioner was convicted of the offense of delivery of sine-quan, a dangerous drug. The punishment assessed was imprisonment for five years.

See Ex parte Russell, 561 S.W.2d 844 (Tex.Cr.App.1978); Ex parte Valdez, 550 S.W.2d 88 (Tex.Cr.App.1977); Ex parte Banks, 542 S.W.2d…
