Hill v. Kelley (Majority)
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the circuit court dismissing and denying Appellant's pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus seeking relief from a Grant County capital murder conviction and a Ouachita county first-degree murder conviction, holding that there was no error.
In his petition, Appellant contended that he was "charged and prosecuted on unconstitutionally vague, void, and invalid insufficient criminal informations" and raised claims regarding sufficiency of the evidence, trial error, ineffective assistance of counsel, and improper jury instructions. The circuit court denied the writ. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that none of Appellant's claims merited issuance of the writ, and the circuit court did not clearly err by declining to issue the writ.
