Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / Dec 20, 2022
Vance R. Clark vs. Doris Falkenrath, Warden
Vance Clark appealed the denial of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus, in which he challenged his criminal sentences for drug offenses. Clark argued the trial court lacked jurisdiction to enter an amended judgment and that his sentences exceeded statutory maximums. The Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District, dismissed the appeal, holding that there is no direct appeal from the denial of a petition for a writ of habeas corpus.
