Murry v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this Case
Appellant Eric Murry pled guilty to charges of theft by receiving, being a felon in possession of a firearm, and possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, for which he received a ten-year suspended sentence on each count and was ordered to pay $500 in court costs. After Appellant failed to pay court costs, failed to notify the sheriff of his address and employment, and was charged with further crimes, the circuit court revoked Appellant's suspended imposition of sentence and sentenced him to 360 months' incarceration. Appellant filed a petition for postconviction relief, which the trial court denied after finding the petition was over-length. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the circuit court did not err in dismissing a petition that failed to adhere to the page limit dictated in Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1.
