Ricky Northern v. Stephen Dotson, Warden

The petitioner, Ricky Northern, appeals the trial court’s denial of his petition for habeas corpus relief. This is the petitioner’s second attempt to secure habeas corpus relief. The State has filed a motion requesting that this court affirm the trial court pursuant to Rule 20 of the Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals. After review, we conclude that the petitioner has failed to allege any ground which would render the judgment of conviction void. We grant the State’s motion and affirm the judgment of the trial court in accordance with Rule 20.
