| Topic: | Post-conviction relief - Successive writ - Time bar |
| Summary of the Facts: | Jeffery Jones entered guilty pleas to five charges under the Controlled Substances Act. Jones was sentenced to five separate terms of imprisonment, to be served consecutively, for a total of eighteen years, with five years of post-release supervision. He filed a motion for post-conviction relief which was denied. He filed another motion for post-conviction relief which was dismissed as a successive writ. He appeals. |
| Summary of Opinion Analysis: | Not only is Jones’ second motion procedurally barred as an impermissible successive attempt to obtain post-conviction relief, but the motion is time-barred as it was not filed within the three-year time limit. |
