How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding defendant’s motion for return of property not used as evidence against him timely where it was filed 59 days after defendant entered plea of guilty
  • reversing and remanding with “directions to conduct an evidentiary hearing on appellant’s motion” where the appellant argued that the State was unlawfully holding his property
  • reversing unexplained summary denial of motion for return of property for evidentiary hearing because appellant’s claim was legally sufficient and “he would be deprived of due process of law if he were not afforded a prompt hearing on this matter”
  • court's inherent power to direct return of property seized from criminal defendant if that property is no longer needed as evidence continues to exist after underlying criminal case has terminated
