Supreme Court of Arkansas
Terrance Manuel v. State of Arkansas
June 2, 20222022 Ark. 117
Summary
The court affirmed the denial of Manuel’s petition to correct an illegal sentence. It held that his challenges to guideline departures, alleged violations of federal sentencing law, and the partially concurrent and partially consecutive sentence concerned the manner in which the sentences were imposed rather than facial illegality, making them subject to the applicable postconviction time limit. The court also concluded that the sentences were within the statutory maximum and therefore facially legal.
