Robert Wayne Garner v. Grady Perry, Warden

Syllabus

The Petitioner, Robert Wayne Garner, appeals as of right from the Giles County Circuit Court's summary dismissal of his petition for writ of habeas corpus, in which he contended that his life sentence for his first degree felony murder was illegal because the statute governing his release eligibility does not allow for the possibility of parole. The Petitioner contends that the petition stated a cognizable claim for habeas corpus relief. Discerning no error, we affirm the judgment of the habeas corpus court.

Judges: Judge D. Kelly Thomas, Jr.
