Gerald Jones , Appellant, pro se.

Office of the Attorney General by W. Glenn Watts , Jackson, attorney for appellee.

Before KING, C.J., GRIFFIS and ISHEE, JJ.


GRIFFIS, J., for the Court:

¶ 1. In this appeal of the denial of a motion for post-conviction collateral relief, Gerald Jones argues that the Circuit Court of Lafayette County should have granted his request to file an out-of-time appeal. We agree; therefore, the judgment is reversed, and this case is remanded for the circuit court to conduct an evidentiary hearing to determine whether Jones should be granted permission to file an out-of-time appeal.
