Supreme Court of Arkansas

Anarian Chad Jackson v. Wendy Kelley

June 18, 20202020 Ark. 255

Summary

The court affirmed the dismissal of Jackson's habeas petition and denied his motions to amend his reply brief. It held that the judgment was not facially invalid, that the asserted evidentiary and judicial-bias errors were not cognizable in habeas proceedings, and that no evidentiary hearing or appointed counsel was required because Jackson failed to show probable cause for issuance of the writ.
