Supreme Court of Arkansas

Craigg v. State

February 13, 20142014 Ark. 71

Summary

The court dismissed Craigg’s appeal from the denial of his postconviction petition and denied his request to reinvest jurisdiction in the trial court. It held that Craigg failed to follow the required procedure for obtaining rulings on allegedly unresolved claims and that the record showed he could not prevail on his ineffective-assistance claims. The court concluded that each claim was either refuted by the record, conclusory, unsupported by facts showing prejudice, or otherwise insufficient under the governing two-prong standard.
