Henry Earl Dunn v. Janie Cockrell, Director, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division

Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided August 15, 2002No. 02-40366PublishedCited by 64 opinions

1Per curiam

Petitioner, Henry Earl Dunn, appeals the district court’s denial of his Rule 60(b) motion. Because we find that the district court correctly denied Dunn’s motion, filed solely to allow Dunn a second chance to file a timely appeal, we affirm.

I

Dunn was convicted of capital murder and sentenced to death by the State of Texas in September 1995. The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed in September 1997, Dunn v. State, 951 S.W.2d 478 (Tex.Crim.App.1977). In September 1999, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals denied his timely filed application for post-conviction writ of habeas corpus.
