Dennis J. Ventress, Petitioner v. State of Arkansas, Respondent

Summary

The court denied Ventress’s petition for leave to pursue coram-nobis relief based on an alleged Brady violation involving statements by a codefendant and an allegedly favorable plea agreement. It held that Ventress failed to identify or substantiate any suppressed, material, and prejudicial evidence, and that his accomplice, trial-error, sufficiency, and witness-credibility arguments were not cognizable in a coram-nobis proceeding.
