Steven Laron McArthur, Petitioner v. State of Arkansas, Respondent

Summary

The court denied McArthur's petition for permission to pursue a writ of error coram nobis and denied his request for appointed counsel. It held that the alleged witness recantation was not independently cognizable, the alleged undisclosed statement did not establish a Brady violation, and ineffective-assistance, sufficiency, and witness-credibility claims could not be resolved in coram-nobis proceedings. There were no separate opinions.
