Brown v. Hobbs (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant filed a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus challenging the validity of a 2009 judgment-and-commitment order filed in the Crittenden County Circuit Court. Specifically, Appellant argued that a time-computation card issued to him by the Arkansas Department of Correction reflected a release date that did not coincide with the terms of his plea agreement. The circuit court dismissed the habeas petition for failure to state a claim. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that, even assuming that Appellant’s claims were true, such arguments were not cognizable in a petition for writ of habeas corpus.
