Victor HURNS, Petitioner v. STATE of Mississippi, Respondent
ORDER
Before the Court is Victor Hurns's motion titled “Requesting Clarification on Court's Order – No – ‘2018-M-00633’ Victor Hurns v. State of Mississippi.”
Hurns asks the Court to clarify its September 12, 2019, order denying his application for post-conviction relief. In the order, we directed that “[t]he Clerk of this Court shall not accept for filing any further applications for post-conviction collateral relief (or pleadings in that nature) from Hurns that are related to this conviction and sentence unless he pays the applicable docket fee.” Thus, Hurns must pay the applicable docket fee before filing any applications for post-conviction collateral relief (or pleadings in that nature) related to the conviction and sentence attacked in that application. After due consideration, we find the motion should be denied.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED Hurns's motion requesting clarification is denied.
SO ORDERED.
/s/ James D. Maxwell II
