State ex rel. Jackson v. Sloan
Annotate this CaseAppellant, an inmate, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus arguing that his aggregate sentence had expired and that he was entitled to immediate release. Appellee, Warden Brigham Sloan, moved to dismiss the petition, arguing, among other things, that Appellant failed to state a claim upon which relief could be granted because his sentence did not expire until 2039. The court of appeals granted the motion to dismiss. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the habeas petition was properly dismissed because Appellant failed to attach all his required commitment papers to the petition.
