The opinion
OPINION
PER CURIAM.
This is a post conviction application for writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to the provisions of Art. 11.07, Y.A.C.C.P.
On January 9, 1986, applicant was found guilty of the offense of capital murder. After the jury returned affirmative answers to the special issues, punishment was assessed at death. This Court affirmed applicant’s conviction on direct appeal. Rogers v. State, 774 S.W.2d 247 (Tex.Cr.App.1989).
On January 17, 1991, this Court ordered the instant cause filed and set on applicant’s first allegation. In that allegation, it is urged the jury in applicant’s capital murder trial was precluded from considering mitigating evidence regarding applicant’s background and character. The trial court has entered findings of fact and conclusions of law and recommended the relief sought be denied.
This Court has reviewed the record with respect to the allegation presented by applicant and finds that the findings and conclusions entered by the trial court are supported by the record and upon such basis the relief sought is denied. 1 The Stay of Execution entered by this Court on January 17, 1991, is vacated.
. We specifically decline to adopt conclusions of law Nos. 2, 3, and 8 entered by the trial court concerning applicant’s alleged procedural default. See Black v. State, 816 S.W.2d 350 (Tex. Cr.App.1991). Applicant’s remaining 29 allegations are denied on the basis of the findings and conclusions entered by the trial court.
