Pendleton appealed the dismissal of his Rule 24.035 post-conviction motion, which the motion court found untimely. Pendleton contended the court failed to make sufficient findings and conclusions regarding alleged exceptions to the motion's untimely filing. The appellate court reversed the dismissal and remanded the case, holding that the motion court was required to make specific findings of fact on the movant's claims of exceptions to the time limit, particularly because he presented substantial evidence supporting those claims.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review","civil-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=138314","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/raymond-g-pendleton-v-state-of-missouri-d81347","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":36,"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"}]}
