Supreme Court of Arkansas

Mario Quezada, Appellant v. Ray Hobbs

September 25, 20142014 Ark. LEXIS 497

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Quezada’s habeas petition alleging that his convictions for delivery and possession with intent violated double jeopardy. The court held that the claim was not cognizable in habeas because the judgment-and-commitment order did not facially establish an illegal sentence or show convictions for both an offense and its lesser-included offense, and Quezada did not show that the trial court lacked jurisdiction.
