Hill v. State‎(2)‎

Summary

The court dismissed Jessie Hill’s appeal from the denial of his motion challenging the statutory construction of his murder conviction and seeking acquittal. The court concluded that the motion was properly treated as a habeas petition, over which the trial court lacked jurisdiction because Hill was not incarcerated in that court’s jurisdiction, and that his insufficient-evidence claim was unavailable under each potentially applicable postconviction procedure. The court also rejected Hill’s attempt to invoke plain error through postconviction proceedings.
