Description
1. Robert Rowland and two co-defendants pleaded guilty to two counts of armed robbery and two counts of capital murder stemming from a 1979 incident. Rowland filed the instant petition for post-conviction collateral relief in 2007, claiming that the convictions and sentences for armed robbery violate his fundamental right against double jeopardy, as they were the underlying felonies for the capital-murder convictions. The trial court dismissed Rowlands petition as time-barred, and the Court of Appeals affirmed. We granted certiorari and now reverse and remand.
