Supreme Court of Arkansas

Travis v. Hobbs

October 2, 20142014 Ark. 411

Summary

The court treated the petitioner's combined motion as a motion for belated appeal and denied it. Although the petitioner claimed to have mailed an earlier notice of appeal before the deadline, he did not establish that the clerk received it, and Arkansas does not apply a prison mailbox rule. He therefore failed to show good cause for the untimely appeal or establish that the circuit clerk was responsible for the failure.
