Quezada v. Hobbs (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant pleaded guilty to one count of delivery of a controlled substance and two counts of possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver. Appellant was sentenced to a total of 300 months’ imprisonment with an additional 180 months’ suspended imposition of sentence for each count. Appellant later filed a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus, claiming that the proscription against double jeopardy was violated in his case because he was convicted of both delivery of a controlled substance and possession of the controlled substance with intent to deliver. The circuit court denied habeas relief. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Appellant did not meet his burden of demonstrating that the face of the judgment demonstrated that the judgment was invalid.
