Dunlap v. State

Supreme Court of South Carolina

Decided January 31, 2007PublishedCited by 1 opinion

1Opinion of the Court

ORDER

Petitioner seeks a writ of certiorari to review an order of the Court of Appeals denying his request for a writ of certiorari in this post-conviction relief (PCR) action. We deny the petition for a writ of certiorari.

Because this Court only recently began transferring PCR actions to the Court of Appeals, the first petitions for writs of certiorari to the Court of Appeals in PCR actions are now being filed with this Court. We take this opportunity to remind the Bar that petitions for writs of certiorari following a decision by the Court of Appeals in these actions are not required.
