Halladay v. Commissioner of Correction
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the appellate court that dismissed Petitioner's appeal from the order of the habeas court directing Petitioner to produce certain investigative materials contained in the file of his criminal defense attorneys, holding that there was no error.
Petitioner pleaded guilty to murder and tampering with physical evidence. Petitioner later filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus, arguing that he had received ineffective assistance of counsel. Respondent filed a motion for the production of relevant materials from Petitioner's criminal defense and investigative files, which the habeas court granted. Petitioner appealed, and the appellate court dismissed the appeal for lack of a final judgment. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the appellate court properly dismissed Petitioner's appeal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
