Hooper v. Hobbs (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CasePetitioner filed in the circuit court in the county where he was incarcerated a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus, alleging, among other claims, that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel. The circuit court dismissed the petition and denied Petitioner's motion for reconsideration. Petitioner appealed. The Supreme Court clerk declined to lodge the record-on-appeal for procedural reasons, and Petitioner filed a motion seeking leave to proceed with the appeal. The Supreme Court denied the motion, holding that Appellant failed to state cognizable claims and therefore did not meet his burden of demonstrating a basis for a writ of habeas corpus to issue.
