Hutcherson v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Appellant was convicted of aggravated robbery, misdemeanor theft of property, and felony theft of property. Appellant subsequently filed a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus, asking that the videotape that showed the robbery of a gas station, which was one of the robberies of which Appellant was convicted, should be "tested." Appellant's petition was denied. The Supreme Court dismissed Appellant's appeal and declared the motion Appellant filed in relation to the appeal moot, holding that Appellant could not prevail if his appeal were allowed to proceed, as Appellant's petition was little more than a bare allegation of innocence with no showing that there was good cause to order further scientific testing of evidence.
