State vs. David Hundley

In this case, the petitioner, David Lee Hundley, filed a petition for post-conviction relief. The trial court dismissed the petition on the basis that it was barred by the applicable statute of limitations. Our Court reversed and remanded for a determination by the trial court as to whether there was sufficient evidence of Petitioner's prior mental health problems to warrant a tolling of the statute of limitations. David Lee Hundley v. State, No. 02C01-9810-CC-00313, 1999 WL 668723, Weakley County (Tenn. Crim. App., Jackson, August 26, 1999). The supreme court granted the State's application for permission to appeal pursuant to Tenn. R. App. P. 11 and remanded the case to this Court for reconsideration in light of State v. Nix, S.W.3d, No. E1999-02715-SC-R11-PC, slip op. (Tenn. Feb. 20, 2001). Upon remand, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
