Dillon v. State (Majority)
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the circuit court denying Appellant's motion to withdraw his guilty, his petition to correct an illegal sentence imposed in an illegal manner, his petition to vacate and set aside or correct his sentence, and his motion for a new trial, holding that there was no clear error.
In denying postconviction relief, the circuit court found that Appellant's multiple requests failed to meet the verification requirement of Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1 and were otherwise untimely under Rule 37.2(c). The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the circuit court did not clearly err when it denied and dismissed Appellant's motions and petitions to withdraw his plea as unverified and to set aside his sentences as untimely.
