Supreme Court of Arkansas
Stanley v. State
November 21, 20132013 Ark. 483
Summary
The court dismissed Stanley's appeal from the denial of his petition to correct an illegal sentence because his claims were not jurisdictional illegal-sentence claims and could not succeed under the statute he invoked. The claims were instead cognizable under Rule 37.1, but the petition was filed approximately ten months after sentencing, well beyond the ninety-day jurisdictional deadline. The petition was also untimely under section 16-90-111, and the pending transcript and extension motions were therefore moot.
