Robinson v. Stategreen2 sentences2012Id. at 1152 (¶ 13). 2012In Robinson v. State, 75 So.3d 1148, 1151 (¶ 9) (Miss.Ct.App.2011), Robert Robinson claimed the indictment against him was legally insufficient because the indictment charged him with possession of me-thylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) but it did not track the language of the Mississippi statute that prohibits possession of MDMA by the name “3, 4-methy-lenedioxymethamphetamine.” This Court found no merit to Robinson’s claim on appeal because the indictment specifically referenced the statute Robinson was accused of violating. | 1 | 1 |

Johnson v. Stategreen2 sentences2008According to the Johnson court, while the correct result was reached in Robinson , “the road ... traveled to get to [the] final destination was more than a little bumpy.” Id. 2008On appeal of the circuit court’s denial of Robinson’s motion for post-conviction relief, the supreme court held that section 47-7-33 does not allow a convicted felon “to receive ‘suspension of sentence and probation,’ and that Robinson should therefore be permitted to withdraw his guilty plea and enter a new plea ... [or] be given the opportunity for a trial if he chose to offer a not guilty plea.” Id. at 97 (¶ 20). | 1 | 1 |
