Williams v. Stategreen
tenn · 2001 · cited in 11 Tennessee opinions naming this issue, 2005–2019
2 sentences

2019The court then remanded the case for an evidentiary hearing to determine “(1) whether due process tolled the statute of limitations so as to give [the petitioner] a reasonable opportunity after the expiration of the limitations period to present his claim in a meaningful time and manner; and (2) if so, whether [the petitioner’s] filing of the post-conviction petition . . . was within the reasonable opportunity afforded by the due process tolling.” Id. at 471 .

2013This court concluded that the trial court erred in dismissing the petition without conducting a hearing to make determinations similar to those outlined in Williams v. State, 44 S.W.3d 464 (Tenn. 2001), reversed the trial court’s judgment, and remanded the case for an evidentiary hearing on the timeliness of the petition.

2 sentences

1989In conjunction with the trial court's finding that petitioner's complaint had been waived, the majority of the Court of Criminal Appeals found: "The petitioner seeks to set aside convictions unrelated to those challenged in his first petition on the grounds that `no mention whatever was made [by the trial court] of the right not to be compelled to incriminate himself' and that there was a failure, in the prior convictions, to advise him of his `constitutional right against self-incrimination.' See State v. Mackey, 553 S.W.2d 337, 341 (Tenn. 1977).

tenn · 1998
1 sentence

2010The supreme court remanded the case for an evidentiary hearing to resolve the issue because “[t]o summarily terminate his claim without further inquiry would be an ‘abridgement of both direct and post-conviction avenues of appeal-without ever reaching the merits of the ... case ... [and] would be patently unfair.’” Id. (quoting Crittenden v. State, 978 S.W.2d 929 (Tenn. 1998)).

1996The issue for our determination is whether the Court of Criminal Appeals erred in reversing the trial court’s judgment and remanding the case for an evidentiary hearing to determine if the petitioner should be relieved, pursuant to our decisions in Burford v. State, 845 S.W.2d 204 (1992) and Sands v. State, 903 S.W.2d 297 (Tenn.1995), of the consequences of the expiration of the three-year limitations period applicable to post-conviction petitions. 1 For the reasons that follow, we conclude that the Court of Criminal Appeals did err, and therefore reverse its judgment and dismiss the petition
