The motion court had dismissed Gilkey's pro se motion as untimely before his appointed counsel had an opportunity to file an amended motion within the Rule 29.15 time limits. The appellate court reversed and remanded, holding that the motion court clearly erred by prematurely ruling on the motion, thereby depriving Gilkey of counsel's expertise to address the timeliness issue.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure","civil-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=155439","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/brandon-james-gilkey-v-state-of-missouri-d83071","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":38,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
