Said Laghrab v. State of Tennessee

The Petitioner, Said Laghrab, pled guilty in the Fayette County Circuit Court to aggravated
assault and received a four-year sentence. Seven years later, he filed a petition for postconviction
relief, and the post-conviction court summarily dismissed the petition as
untimely. Based upon the oral arguments, the record, and the parties’ briefs, we conclude
that the Petitioner has not shown he is entitled to due process tolling of the statute of
limitations and affirm the post-conviction court’s dismissal of the petition.
