Abdulhakim Muhammad v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Muhammad’s habeas petition because he did not show that the judgment was facially invalid or that the circuit court lacked jurisdiction. Arkansas could prosecute conduct that might also violate federal law, and Muhammad’s ineffective-assistance claims were not cognizable in habeas proceedings and instead belonged in a timely postconviction petition. The court also declared his motion to supplement moot.
