Oliver v. Hobbs (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseIn 2013, Petitioner filed a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus, which the circuit court denied. No appeal was taken. Petitioner subsequently sought leave to proceed with a belated appeal, contending that he did not file a timely notice of appeal because he was not promptly notified by the circuit clerk that the circuit court’s order had been entered. The Supreme Court denied the motion, holding that, even if the order was not promptly forwarded to Petitioner, that fact in itself did not constitute good cause for Petitioner’s failure to follow procedure.
