State v. Perry green
mont · 1988
2 sentences

1999The Perry Court reasoned that to accept the State’s position could result in situations where “a defendant held in violation of his constitutional rights would be deprived of a method of redress regardless of his diligence or the justness of his claim.” Perry, 232 Mont. at 462 , 758 P.2d at 272-73 . ¶26 In subsequent decisions, this Court has narrowed the Perry exception.

Perry v. Whitley County 4-H Clubs Inc. green

2025Indiana’s Equine Activity Statute barred Perry’s claim because “her injury resulted from inherent risks of equine activities and the 4-H Club was negligent, if at all, only for failing to mitigate those inherent risks.” Perry, 931 N.E.2d at 940-41 . ¶31 These cases help illustrate why the summary judgment record in this case sustains the District Court’s ruling.

State v. Gollehon green
mont · 1995
2 sentences

1996Perry is inapplicable here, however, and is, as we recently held, “unique on its facts.” State v. Gollehon (1995), [ 274 Mont. 116 ], 906 P.2d 697, 700 . *374 State v. Perry (1988), 232 Mont. 455 , 758 P.2d 268 , involved an out-of-time motion for a new trial, not a petition for postconviction relief; indeed, we specifically declined the State’s invitation to deem Perry’s pleading a petition for postconviction relief and, on that basis, apply the five-year statute of limitations contained in § 46-21-102, MCA.
