Benjamin K. Fowler v. State of Tennessee

The Petitioner, Benjamin K. Fowler, appeals from the Knox County Criminal Court’s

summary denial of his petition for post-conviction relief. The Petitioner contends that the

post-conviction court erred in summarily denying his petition for being untimely filed

because, he alleges that, he delivered a petition to the appropriate prison officials for

mailing to the court clerk within the statute of limitations, but the prison officials failed to

mail the petition. Discerning no error, we affirm the judgment of the post-conviction

court.
