Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the trial court denying Appellant's pro se petition to correct an illegal sentence pursuant to Ark. Code Ann. 16-90-111(a), holding that Appellant failed to established that his sentence was imposed in an illegal manner.
Appellant was sentenced for murder in the first degree and attempted murder in the first degree to a total of 600 months' imprisonment. Appellant later brought this petition arguing that his sentences should be vacated because they exceeded the presumptive sentences allowed for the offenses and because he was not afforded due process. The Supreme Court denied relief, holding that Appellant's sentences were facially legal.
