Triplett McNeal v. State of Tennessee

The Petitioner, Triplett McNeal, pled guilty to aggravated robbery, especially aggravated kidnapping, and especially aggravated robbery and agreed to an effective sentence of thirty years in the Tennessee Department of Correction. He filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus in the Lauderdale County Circuit Court, and the habeas corpus court dismissed the petition. The Petitioner now appeals the denial of his petition for habeas corpus relief and, after a review of the record in this case, we conclude that the Petitioner’s notice of appeal is untimely. As such, we dismiss the Petitioner’s appeal.
