Larry D. Turnley, Pro Se vs. State

Case Number
M2003-02153-CCA-R3-HC
The Petitioner, Larry D. Turnley, appeals the trial court's dismissal of his petition for the writ of habeas corpus, which was treated as a petition for post- conviction relief by the trial court. The State has filed a motion requesting that this Court affirm the trial court's denial of relief pursuant to Rule 20, Rules of the Court of Criminal Appeals. The Petitioner filed his petition outside the statute of limitations for post-conviction purposes. Moreover, the petitioner is incarcerated in a federal prison, and federal prisoners are specifically excluded from state habeas corpus relief. Accordingly, the State's motion is granted, and the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
