JACKSON - Derrick Poss didn't convince the Mississippi Court of Appeals that his Lee County conviction was illegal.

"Finding no error, we affirm," read the 9-0 decision issued Tuesday.

Poss pleaded guilty in May 2004 to armed robbery charges and was sentenced to serve 15 of a 20-year prison term.

Circuit Court in Lee County twice denied his appeals for post-conviction relief and a rehearing on legal issues.

He first appealed, saying his plea was involuntary. His second appeal alleged he was sentenced illegally.
