Summary of the Facts: | Bernard Bryant pled guilty to the sexual battery of a girl under the age of fourteen. He was given an eight year sentence, seven and one half years suspended with five years of probation. His probation has been revoked. He filed a petition for post-conviction relief which was denied. He appeals. |
Summary of Opinion Analysis: | Bryant was sentenced on July 12, 1999. His motion for post-conviction relief was filed on November 17, 2003. When a conviction arises from a guilty plea, a motion for post-conviction relief must be made within three years after the judgment. None of the issues he raises are exceptions to the three year deadline for bringing claims. |
