The motion court had granted a second extension for filing Wright's amended motion, which the State argued was untimely. The appellate court reversed the denial and remanded the case, holding that the motion court exceeded its authority under the applicable version of Rule 29.15(g) by granting a second extension, thereby rendering the amended motion untimely. The case was remanded for the motion court to conduct an abandonment inquiry.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=181274","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/destynie-wright-v-state-of-missouri-d84046","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","text: criminal"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
