Description
Bobby Michael Friend is incarcerated in the Arkansas Department of Correction and brings this appeal of an order denying his pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus entered in Jefferson County Circuit Court. A judgment and commitment order entered in Sevier County Circuit Court July 28, 1994, reflects that appellant Friend entered a negotiated plea of guilty to each of two counts of capital murder and was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole. This court had previously reversed appellants convictions and death sentence on those charges, which arise from the beating deaths of appellants parents, and had remanded for a new trial. Friend v. State, 315 Ark. 143, 865 S.W.2d 275 (1993). Appellant has twice previously filed pleadings alleging grounds for post-conviction relief that would have been cognizable under a petition pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1. In each instance, this court found in separate unpublished opinions that the pleadings requesting post-conviction relief were not timely filed. Friend v. State, CR 9602 (Ark. March 18, 1996); Friend v. State, CR 98-55 (Ark. June 4, 1998).
