Willis v. Hobbs
Annotate this CaseAppellant Carl Willis was convicted of second-degree sexual assault. Appellant subsequently filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus containing claims concerning defects in the information that charged him. The circuit court denied the petition. Before the Supreme Court was Appellant's motion for an extension of time in which to file his brief. The Court dismissed the appeal and declared the motion moot, holding that because Appellant's challenges to the information were not supported by the record as jurisdictional challenges, Appellant stated no basis to support issuance of the writ, the petition was without merit, and Appellant could not prevail on appeal.
