Supreme Court of Arkansas

Barber v. Kelley

June 8, 20172017 Ark. 214

Summary

The court dismissed Barber’s appeal because he failed to file a brief or seek an extension and offered no substantiated good cause for that failure. It also concluded that the appeal lacked merit because his habeas claims neither established facial invalidity or lack of jurisdiction nor presented claims cognizable in habeas proceedings. Barber’s motion for a belated appeal was treated as a motion for a belated brief and rendered moot.
