Wright v. Kelley

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal of Wright's petition for declaratory judgment and mandamus. It held that declaratory relief could not be used to attack his convictions or the accuracy of the ADC's parole calculation, and that his statutory, due-process, and ex-post-facto theories lacked merit. The court concluded that Wright had not shown a constitutional entitlement to parole or application of the statute to pre-enactment conduct.
