Supreme Court of Arkansas

Ricky Wayne White v. State of Arkansas

March 8, 2018540 S.W.3d 291

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of White's petition challenging his habitual-offender sentence because his allegations concerned the evidentiary support and imposition of the sentence, not a facially illegal sentence. The sentence was within the statutory range, and the challenge was therefore cognizable under Rule 37.1 and untimely because it was filed nearly twenty-five years after the mandate. White's motion to file a belated reply brief was moot.
