Supreme Court of Arkansas

Fields v. State

November 14, 20132013 Ark. 471

Summary

The court dismissed Fields’s motion for a belated appeal from the denial of habeas relief because his transfer to a facility in another county deprived the filing court of personal jurisdiction to grant effective relief. His motion to complete the record was moot because the appeal could not proceed. The court did not reach the merits of the belated-appeal request.
