Ritter v. Hobbs (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant pleaded guilty to one count each of rape and kidnapping. Appellant subsequently filed a pro se petition for declaratory judgment against the Director of the Arkansas Department of Correction (ADC), contending that the ADC had violated his due process rights in calculating his transfer-eligibility date because Ark. Code Ann. 16-93-611 did not require that Defendant serve seventy percent of his sentence before being eligible for community-punishment placement. The circuit court denied the petition. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Appellant failed to set forth any convincing argument or authority in support of his contentions.
