A person who has taken an appeal from a judgment of conviction or a juvenile adjudication is not precluded from utilizing the remedy of this chapter while the appeal is pending, provided that the post-conviction review proceeding is automatically stayed pending resolution of the appeal unless the Appellate Court on motion and for good cause otherwise directs.
