Henderson v. Georgia
Annotate this Case
In May 2000, appellant William Henderson pled guilty to two counts of murder and numerous other crimes. Appellant filed a pro se motion for an out-of-time appeal in June 2012, which the trial court denied. The Supreme Court affirmed that denial in April 2013. In August 2013, appellant filed a motion to withdraw his guilty plea and a motion to recuse the trial judge, who was the same judge that had taken his guilty plea and denied his motion for out-of-time appeal. The trial court denied both motions in separate orders, and appellant filed a notice of appeal of both orders. Finding no error in either order, the Supreme Court affirmed both cases.
