Supreme Court of Arkansas

D'Angelo Allen v. State of Arkansas

October 17, 20192019 Ark. 281

Summary

The court denied Allen’s requests to pursue a belated appeal from the denial of his habeas petition because he did not establish good cause for filing his notice of appeal after the deadline. His arguments concerning the merits and wording of the circuit court’s order did not excuse noncompliance, and his allegation of clerk delay was unsupported by facts. The related motions for correction, briefing, appointment of counsel, and additional briefing time were deemed moot.
