Supreme Court of Arkansas

Leonard Noble v. State of Arkansas

October 17, 20192019 Ark. 284

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal of Leonard Noble's habeas petition because an alleged speedy-trial violation does not establish facial invalidity of the judgment or a jurisdictional defect cognizable in habeas proceedings. The court also held that Noble was not entitled to an evidentiary hearing because he failed to show probable cause for issuance of the writ. His motion to file a supplemental addendum was therefore moot.
