AK Stat § 12.73.040 (2016) What's This?

In determining whether an application is timely under AS 12.73.020(11), there is a presumption of

(1) timeliness if the application is filed before three years after the date of conviction; this presumption may be rebutted if the court finds that the application is based solely upon information used in a previously denied application; and

(2) untimeliness if the application is filed three years or more after conviction; this presumption may be rebutted if the court finds good cause for filing three years or more after conviction.
