Supreme Court of Arkansas

Anarian Chad Jackson v. Dexter Payne

May 1, 20252025 Ark. 61

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal of Jackson's habeas petition because it repeated a previously rejected challenge to the legality of the special judge's appointment. The court held that the sentence was not facially illegal, that the repeated claim constituted an abuse of the writ, and that the circuit court's dismissal was not clearly erroneous.
