Don Airsman, Jr., Petitioner v. Honorable Randy Wright, Judge, Respondent

Summary

The Supreme Court of Arkansas denied Airsman’s pro se petition for a writ of mandamus seeking to compel the circuit judge to file or sign documents related to an appeal from the denial of a second postconviction petition. The court held that Airsman did not establish a clear legal duty by the judge, failed to identify any unresolved pleading, and pointed to no procedural duty requiring the judge to explain delays or missed deadlines.
