White v. State
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the trial court’s denial of Appellant’s petition to correct an illegal sentence, holding that Appellant’s petition failed to state a basis for relief.
The trial court denied Appellant’s petition to correct an illegal sentence on multiple grounds. The Supreme Court dismissed Appellant’s appeal, holding that because Appellant did not plead facts to support a finding that his sentence was facially invalid and raised only a claim challenging the legality of the imposition of his sentence that was filed far outside the time limitations set forth in Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.2, the trial court did not err in denying the petition. Therefore, Appellant’s motion for permission to file a belated reply brief was moot.
