Adam Davis, Jr., Petitioner v. State of Arkansas, Respondent

Summary

The court dismissed Davis’s second petition seeking to reinvest the trial court with jurisdiction to consider a writ of error coram nobis. It held that the asserted suppression claim merely repackaged allegations previously raised and, in any event, did not show that the evidence was withheld, material, or prejudicial. The court likewise rejected the renewed competency claim because the relevant mental-health information was known at trial and Davis identified no new facts sufficient to overcome the presumption that the judgment was valid.
