| Topic: | Post-conviction relief - Successive petition - Section 99-39-23(6) |
| Summary of the Facts: | Jared Massey pled guilty to manslaughter and was sentenced to twenty years with eight years suspended. He filed a petition for writ of error coram nobis which was denied. He appeals. |
| Summary of Opinion Analysis: | Pursuant to section 99-39-23(6), the denial of post-conviction relief is a bar to successive motions unless the motion raises the issue of the convict's supervening insanity prior to the execution of a sentence of death, there has been an intervening U.S. or Mississippi Supreme Court decision which would have actually adversely affected the outcome of his conviction or sentence, there is evidence not reasonably discoverable at the time of trial which would have caused a different result in the conviction or sentence, or the prisoner claims his sentence has expired or his probation, parole or conditional release has been unlawfully revoked. Massey's claims are that his counsel was ineffective, that his guilty plea was not voluntarily made, and that his confession was coerced. These claims do not fall within the statutory exceptions. |
