Bismillah Rahim Muhammad v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of relief for claims challenging departures from presumptive sentencing guidelines and alleged violations of the rules governing jury findings because those claims challenged the manner of sentencing, were untimely under the applicable post-conviction framework, and did not establish facial illegality. It reversed and remanded for resentencing on two suspended sentences for endangering the welfare of a minor because the suspensions were unlawfully consecutive and one exceeded the statutory maximum. No separate opinions were filed.
