@Niner I haven't forgotten this case; there just hasn't been a lot happening. Do's atty petitioned for a re-hearing, the State responded to the petition and the SC denied her petition. It has been in the waiting room for quite some time.
I'll update this again. From what I've understood, this an excellent example of why the trial attorneys must do a diligent job of laying a solid foundation for appeal.

@Niner Sorry I haven't gotten back to Owen. He's a done deal for now.
Here's an update for you from Murz. I had to check his F2 case to find it.
Another issue to try to get educated on. Whatever it is he wants, the court isn't letting him have it.
I'd sure like to see it, too.

@Niner Maybe I've figured this new filing out. I think it's DO requesting his appellate records.
This number was referenced in the latest filing: Case No. 18S-MS-402
Following is a snip from that order:
Order Issued
This order vacates and replaces the Standing Order Governing the Release of Appellate Records for Copying issued March 8, 2001, Case No. 94S00-0103-MS-152, and governs the procedure in criminal cases for providing an indigent party with a copy of the record filed in this Court on direct appeal. Effective immediately and until further order, whenever the Supreme Court receives a motion from an indigent party requesting a copy of a direct appeal record at public expense, the Office of Supreme Court Services may, without further order of this Court, issue a letter directing the Clerk of this Court to release the record to the Office of the Public Defender of Indiana to copy and transmit it to the party.

I know nothing about post conviction relief. I wonder if this is about the Indiana Supreme Court's denial of DO's petition for a rehearing. His atty missed the filing deadline by 5 days (# 21S-LW-00333).
Post Conviction Relief case: 20C01-2405-PC-000016
Rule PC 1. Post-Conviction Relief
Section 1. Remedy—To whom available—Conditions.
(a) Any person who has been convicted of, or sentenced for, a crime by a court of this state, and who claims:(1) that the conviction or the sentence was in violation of the Constitution of the United States or the constitution or laws of this state;
(2) that the court was without jurisdiction to impose sentence;
(3) that the sentence exceeds the maximum authorized by law, or is otherwise erroneous;
(4) that there exists evidence of material facts, not previously presented and heard, that requires vacation of the conviction or sentence in the interest of justice;
(5) that his sentence has expired, his probation, parole or conditional release unlawfully revoked, or he is otherwise unlawfully held in custody or other restraint;
(6) that the conviction or sentence is otherwise subject to collateral attack upon any ground of alleged error heretofore available under any common law, statutory or other writ, motion, petition, proceeding, or remedy;
may institute at any time a proceeding under this Rule to secure relief.

Anything else? What did they discuss? TIA! And thanks for the above info!
You're welcome.
They didn't discuss any details about the case. The atty for Owen is new to the case so it was agreed to push the next date out 6 months. The judge mentioned the new transition deal; I took that to mean something going on within the court system. He told the atty to take as much time as he needed. The prosecution had nothing to say.
