3. Judgment of Conviction by Court
4. Judgment of Conviction by Jury
5. Order of Deferred Adjudication
6. Judgment Adjudicating Guilt

OCA has also prepared a list containing special orders that may be inserted into the forms as the need warrants.

Additionally, OCA has prepared an "Order to Withdraw Funds" that can be added as an attachment to Forms 3, 4, 6 and 7. See instructions on notifying the offender and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
