R. Crim. P. 32.3 burden to disprove a claimed procedural bar.

COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, April 27, 2007, Released
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Defendant's convictions of three counts of capital murder were affirmed. The death penalty was appropriate under Ala.

COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, April 27, 2007, Released

COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, April 27, 2007, Released
View this case - free |

|
|||||

SUPREME COURT OF ALABAMA, April 27, 2007, Released
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: As a decedent's great-grandchildren had been adopted by their maternal grandmother and stepgrandfather after their mother's death, under the plain language of Ala.
