Supreme Court of Arkansas

Barber v. State

June 4, 20152015 Ark. 267

Summary

The court denied Barber's motion for a belated appeal from the denial of his habeas-corpus petition. Although a habeas petitioner may appeal, the petitioner must file a notice of appeal within thirty days and show good cause for an untimely filing; Barber's delayed notice, lack of notice of the order, incarceration, disciplinary placement, and alleged lack of access to forms and legal resources did not establish good cause.
