Ex Parte Mark Anthony Hawkins, Applicant

Summary

The Court affirmed the trial court's judgment, denying the applicant's habeas corpus claim that the two aggravated robbery convictions violated the Double Jeopardy Clause. The majority held that robbery is an assaultive offense and that each victim constitutes a separate offense, so multiple convictions are permissible. Two concurring opinions joined in the judgment but criticized the majority's reasoning and emphasized waiver of double‑jeopardy rights by guilty pleas.
