Robinson v. State (Majority)
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court dismissed Appellant’s interlocutory appeal from an order of the trial court that denied his pro se motion for reconsideration of the order that denied his motion to file an overlength amendment to his postconviction relief petition pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1, holding that the order that denied the motion for reconsideration was not a final, appealable order.
In his Rule 37.1 petition, Appellant challenged the judgment of conviction entered in his criminal case and filed a motion seeking leave of the court to file an overlength amendment to the Rule 37.1 petition. After the trial court denied the motion, Appellant filed a motion for reconsideration, which was also denied. Appellant then filed this interlocutory appeal. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, holding that Petitioner was not permitted to proceed with an interlocutory appeal of the denial of motions filed in the course of a Rule 37.1 proceeding.
