Torris Benson v. Glen Turner, Warden

Case Number
E2005-00409-CCA-R3-HC

The petitioner, Torris Benson, was convicted in 1987 of robbery and aggravated assault and sentenced to life in prison as a habitual criminal. In a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus, he claimed his habitual criminal sentence is illegal and void because the prior judgments on which the sentence was based were unsigned. The trial court dismissed the petition, and this timely appeal followed. Following our review, we affirm the dismissal.
