United States District Court, D. Arizona
ORDER
JOHN
Z. BOYLE, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
TO THE
HONORABLE ROSLYN O. SILVER, SENIOR UNITED STATES DISTRICT
JUDGE:
Petitioner
Darrell Tyrone Wroten, II, has filed a Petition for Writ of
Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. (Doc. 1.)
I.
Summary of Conclusion.
On July
26, 2010, Petitioner was placed on probation in Pinal County.
On September 5, 2013, Petitioner's probation was revoked
and he was sentenced to five years of imprisonment.
Petitioner did not file for post-conviction review, so his
conviction was final on December 4, 2013, and any petition
for habeas corpus was due a year later. But Petitioner did
not file his Petition until August 8, 2018. The Petition is
untimely. There are no grounds for equitable tolling.
Therefore, the Court will recommend that the Petition be
denied and dismissed with prejudice.
