Supreme Court of Arkansas
Ka’ron Daule Mohammed, Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee
March 16, 20172017 Ark. LEXIS 75
Summary
The court held that Mohammed’s 40-year sentence for second-degree murder was not illegal because the record established that he was sentenced as a habitual offender, for whom the sentence fell within the applicable statutory range. The judgment nevertheless failed to reflect his habitual-offender status and was facially inaccurate. The court affirmed the denial of relief concerning the sentence’s legality but remanded for entry of a corrected judgment and commitment order.
