Alonzo Watson v. Dexter Payne

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Watson's habeas petition. It held that his challenges to the arrest warrant and amendment of the information were barred as repetitive claims constituting an abuse of the writ, while his challenges to the sufficiency of the evidence and admission of a prior conviction alleged trial error rather than a facially invalid judgment or jurisdictional defect cognizable in habeas. The opinion contains no separate-opinion entry in the supplied record.
