OPINION

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 these applications for a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte Young, 418 S.W.2d 824, 826 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967). Applicant pleaded guilty to two counts of manufacture of a controlled substance pursuant to a plea agreement and was sentenced to thirty-five years’ imprisonment on each count. He did not appeal convictions.

Applicant contends, among other things, that his pleas were involuntary. The trial court made findings of fact and conclusions of law and recommended that we set aside Applicant’s judgments of conviction.
