Henderson v. White (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant Percy Henderson was convicted of capital felony murder and was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole. The Supreme Court affirmed. Later, Appellant filed a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus, contending that the trial court lacked jurisdiction over him as he was never arraigned on, or entered a plea to, an amended information that charged him with capital felony murder. The circuit court denied the petition. On appeal, the Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the circuit court did not clearly err in denying Appellant's petition on the basis that Appellant's allegation of improper arraignment was a factual issue that should have been addressed on appeal and that, even if there was an error in the amended information, the error would not take away the court's jurisdiction.
