Eric LaQuinne Brown v. Mississippi
DueProcess HabeasCorpus
Is it a Due Process violation, to apply a 2023 decision (Howell v. State.) case holding, that abolishment of the exception to Mississippi's procedural rule UPCCRA, to a pending case that was originally filed July 14, 2020?
QUESTION(S) PRESENTED Is it a Due Process violation, to apply a 2023, decision (Howell v. State.)* case holding, that abolishment of the exception to Mississippi’s procedural rule UPCCRA, to a pending case that was originally filed July 14, 2020? The Mississippi Supreme Court refused to address the issue, despite Mississippi Supreme Court made the decision to abolish the exceptions to their Mississippi* procedural bars. Brown argues: that he has been deprived of any avenue of review for correcting constitutional errors that would vitiate the validity of his conviction and sentence without a notice. Thus, this is a clear Due Process violation that Mississippi Courts caused,* | «4 W, Blackstone, Commentaries on the Laws of England 197-198 (1769).” The Supreme Court of Mississippi abolished the procedural rule as it had existed at common law in Mississippi and applied its decision to petitioner to affirm his guilty plea. The question before this U.S. Supreme Court is whether, in doing so, the court denied petitioner due process of law by not notifying he of the changes before he filed his last Post-Conviction Motion in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment.” , 2 Howell v.
