Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the circuit court denying Appellant's petition for declaratory judgment and mandamus relief, holding that Appellant failed to demonstrate that he was entitled to relief.
Appellant was convicted of first-degree murder, aggravated robbery, and aggravated assault. After the Supreme Court remanded the case, Appellant's second trial resulted in a mistrial. Appellant then entered a negotiated guilty plea to manslaughter and robbery. In his petition for declaratory judgment and mandamus relief Appellant alleged that the Arkansas Department of Correction miscalculated his parole eligibility date and that his sentences violated the prohibition against double jeopardy and the doctrine of merger. The circuit court denied relief. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that there was no error.
