Rivers v. State

Summary

The court dismissed the appeal from the denial of Rivers's habeas petition and motion to rescind his guilty plea. It held that the circuit court lacked personal jurisdiction over the habeas petition because Rivers was incarcerated in another county, and that the plea-related postconviction claim was untimely under the applicable ninety-day filing period. The requests to file a belated brief and to waive the addendum requirement were therefore moot.
