Perry v. State (Majority, with Dissenting)
Annotate this CaseThe Supreme Court dismissed Appellant’s appeal from the denial by the Chico County Circuit Court of his pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus, which rendered moot Appellant’s motion seeking to file a belated brief on appeal. Appellant filed his habeas corpus petition pursuant to Ark. Code Ann. 16-112-101 to -123. In denying the petition, the circuit court found that the petition contained no allegations that Appellant’s judgment-and-commitment order imposed an illegal sentence or was invalid on its face, or that the trial court lacked jurisdiction. The Supreme Court held a writ of habeas corpus issued by the Chico County Circuit Court could not be returned because Appellant was no longer within its jurisdiction.
