Description

1 Larry Brown appeals pro se from a circuit court order dismissing his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. The circuit court dismissed Browns petition for a number of reasons, including: (1) he was not entitled to prosecute a habeas corpus writ; and (2) an earlier petition that raised one of the same issues had been denied and he was therefore barred from re-litigating that issue. To the extent that Brown raised new issues in his petition, the circuit court reasoned that Brown was procedurally barred from raising those issues. We agree with the circuit court that Brown was not entitled to prosecute a petition for habeas corpus relief, and we also agree that Brown was procedurally barred from relitigating an earlier petition and from raising new post-conviction issues. We therefore affirm the circuit courts order dismissing Browns petition.
