Corey Sanders, Appellant v. William Straughn

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Sanders's habeas petition because he neither alleged a cognizable jurisdictional or facial-validity defect nor demonstrated probable cause that he was illegally detained. The court held that the circuit court could dismiss the petition without serving the respondents or obtaining a response, and that Sanders's challenges to the charging information, use of an information instead of an indictment, and juror bias were not cognizable in habeas proceedings. No separate opinions were filed.
