Cooper v. Georgia

Melvin Cooper appealed the denial of his second motion for leave to take an out-of-time appeal. The Georgia Supreme Court determined the earlier denial of his first motion for an out-of-time appeal settled the question of whether he was entitled to an out-of-time appeal, and the matter was deemed res judicata. For that reason, the Supreme Court affirmed dismissal. View "Cooper v. Georgia" on Justia Law
