Jessie Hill v. Dexter Payne

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal of Hill’s habeas petitions because his claims did not establish that either judgment was facially invalid or that either trial court lacked jurisdiction. His double-jeopardy, defective-information, due-process, and sufficiency challenges were not cognizable in habeas proceedings, and the sufficiency claims also constituted an abuse of the writ because they had been previously raised. The motion to proceed without denial and without delay was moot.
