Jackie Lee Williams, Appellant v. Wendy Kelley

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal of Williams’s habeas petition because he did not show that his convictions were facially invalid or that the trial court lacked jurisdiction. His claims concerning the charging information, fair trials, speedy trial, and double jeopardy were treated as trial-error or nonjurisdictional claims that are not cognizable in habeas proceedings. The court also held that his allegation of double jeopardy was inconsistent with his assertion that the three rapes were separate offenses.
