Supreme Court of Arkansas

Meadows v. State

October 31, 20132013 Ark. 440

Summary

The court dismissed the appeal because the appellant could not prevail on her challenge to the dismissal of her habeas petition. Her allegations concerned trial error, prosecutorial misconduct, ineffective assistance, and other claims that did not establish facial invalidity of the judgment or lack of jurisdiction, and her double-jeopardy allegation did not show an illegal sentence on the face of the commitment order. Her pending motions and mandamus petition were therefore moot.
