Thompson v. State

Timothy Thompson challenges the order denying his application for postconviction relief from prison disciplinary action. Thompson was originally sentenced to up to ten years in 1982. In 1986 Thompson was sentenced to another ten-year term. The terms were to be served consecutively and not concurrently.

He also claims he should have the right to appeal from the denial of his application for postconviction relief.
