Murry v. Hobbs (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant pled guilty to theft by receiving, being a felon in possession of a firearm, and possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance. Appellant subsequently filed in the circuit court where he was incarcerated a pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus, contending that the trial court lacked jurisdiction in his case because the felony information charging him with aggravated robbery was defective and that the State did not have jurisdiction over him. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal and declared the motions Appellant filed in relation to the appeal moot, holding (1) because Appellant failed to properly object to the sufficiency of his indictment prior to trial, he did not establish that the information was defective; and (2) the trial court had jurisdiction over the proceedings.
