Pulliam argued his motion should be treated as timely due to a mistaken belief that he needed to file a certified Department of Corrections (DOC) account statement and DOC's delay in providing it, which he contended constituted third-party interference. The appellate court affirmed the dismissal, holding that Pulliam's mistaken belief and choice not to file did not fall within the narrow third-party interference exception to the mandatory filing deadline.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=186553","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/gabriel-a-pulliam-movant-appellant-v-state-of-missouri-respondent-respond-d37279","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":36,"source":"tag","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
