Supreme Court of Arkansas

Jackson v. State

March 3, 20162016 Ark. 95

Summary

The court denied Jackson's pro se request for a belated appeal because his notice of appeal from the dismissal of his second postconviction petition was untimely and he failed to establish good cause for the delay. His request was also untimely insofar as it sought review of the earlier postconviction order or the judgment of conviction, and he did not show that trial counsel represented him in the postconviction proceedings or had a duty to perfect an appeal.
