| Topic: | Post-conviction relief - Time bar |
| Summary of the Facts: | Russell Little pled guilty to possession of cocaine with intent to sell, transfer or distribute and was sentenced to twenty years and was placed in the intensive supervision program/house arrest program. Little filed a motion for post-conviction relief which was denied. He appeals. |
| Summary of Opinion Analysis: | A post-conviction relief motion must be filed within three years after the entry of the judgment of the conviction. Little’s judgment was entered on October 2, 1998, and he did not file his post-conviction relief motion until September 29, 2003, well over the three year limitation. Therefore, Little’s claims are time-barred. |
