Holliday v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CasePetitioner was found guilty of sexual assault in the second degree and rape and was sentenced to an aggregate term of 720 months' imprisonment. Twenty-one months after the court of appeals issued a mandate affirming the convictions and sentences, Petitioner filed a pro se request for relief that the trial court treated as a petition for postconviction relief. The court dismissed the petition as untimely. Before the Supreme Court was Petitioner's motion for rule on clerk, seeking leave to lodge the record belatedly and proceed with an appeal. The Court denied the motion, holding that because the petition before the trial court was not timely filed, the trial court had no jurisdiction to grant the relief sought, and therefore, the appellate court also lacked jurisdiction.
