Case Name: Eaton v. State

Citation: 2009 WY 144

Docket Number: S-09-0220

Order Denying Petition for Writ of Certiorari/Review

The matter came before the Court upon a “Petition for a Writ of Certiorari or Writ of Review” filed October 30, 2009. In his petition, Mr. Eaton sought review of the district court’s denial of post-conviction relief. After a careful review of the petition, the materials attached and the file, the Court found that the petition should be denied.

The Court ordered Mr. Eaton be allowed to proceed in the matter in forma pauperis; the Petition for a Writ of Certiorari or Writ of Review was denied; and the case was remanded to the district court for issuance of a new warrant directed to the director of the department of corrections to carry out the execution of the sentence as provided by law.

C.J. Voigt delivered the order for the court.
