Supreme Court of Arkansas

Tyrell A. Benson v. Dexter Payne

February 4, 20212021 Ark. 18

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Benson’s habeas petition because his challenge to the prosecutor’s signature on the charging informations alleged, at most, a nonjurisdictional trial defect. Habeas relief was unavailable because Benson did not show that the judgments were facially invalid or that the trial court lacked subject-matter jurisdiction.
