Holly v. Hobbs (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant entered a guilty plea to first-degree murder and aggravated robbery and was sentenced to an aggregate sentence of 720 months’ imprisonment. Appellant later filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus claiming that his sentence was illegal because it violated constitutional protections against double jeopardy. The circuit court dismissed the petition. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Appellant did not establish probable cause that he was illegally detained because he did not state facts in the petition to support his claim that the first-degree murder charge and the aggravated robbery charge were overlapping charges that violated double jeopardy.
