Thurmond v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseIn 2012, Appellant entered a negotiated plea of guilty to a charge of theft of property and received a sentence of 120 days’ imprisonment in jail and sixty months’ probation. Appellant subsequently filed a timely petition for postconviction relief under Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1, alleging that his trial counsel was ineffective. The trial court denied the petition. Appellant appealed. Because Appellant was released from jail after filing his appeal, the Supreme Court held that he was no longer entitled to postconviction relief. Moreover, the Court held that even if Appellant’s claims were not moot, the appeal was without merit.
