Matter C. L

This is an appeal from an order of the juvenile court of Williamson County transferring C. L., appellant, to the custody of
the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for the completion of a twenty-year determinate sentence. See Tex. Fam. Code Ann.
§ 54.11 (West Supp. 1994). Appellant brings twenty-six points of error, which can be divided into three broad areas of complaint:
(1) the trial court erred in recessing the transfer hearing until a date less than thirty days before appellant's eighteenth
birthday; (2) the trial court erred in admitting evidence relevant to a count dismissed by plea bargain, thus allowing the
State to prove by a lesser burden than beyond a reasonable doubt that appellant committed a different offense from the one
for which he was adjudged delinquent; and (3) the trial court abused its discretion in ordering appellant's transfer to the
Texas Department of Criminal Justice. We will affirm the trial court's order. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
