Phase II, LLC v. City of Huntsville, 1050097, SUPREME COURT OF ALABAMA, August 25, 2006, Released
View this case - free

Robey v. State, CR-05-1346, COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF ALABAMA, August 25, 2006, Released
View this case - free  

Overview: Because defendant's claims for postconviction relief did not implicate the jurisdiction of the trial court and were time-barred under Ala. R. Crim. P. 32.2(c), as they were filed almost 15 years after the time for filing an appeal had lapsed, summary denial of his postconviction relief petition was proper.
