Bradford v. State
Annotate this CaseAppellant was serving terms on three sentences for three convictions when he filed a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus. The circuit court denied the petition without a hearing. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) the circuit court did not err by not conducing a hearing on Appellant's petition because Appellant failed to demonstrate probable cause for the issuance of the writ; (2) the circuit court committed no error if it did not make written findings to support its decision; (3) Appellant's claim that his conviction for delivery of a controlled substance was invalid stated no grounds upon which the writ could properly issue and therefore failed; and (4) any challenges to Appellant's convictions for second-degree escape were moot because the sentences he received for those offenses expired.
