Cohen James Davis, Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee

Summary

The court dismissed Davis's appeal from the denial of his Rule 37.1 petition, concluding that he could not prevail on his claim that counsel rendered ineffective assistance in connection with his guilty plea. The court deferred to the trial court's credibility findings and held that Davis failed to establish that counsel's advice fell outside the range of competent representation. His motions for an extension of time and appointment of appellate counsel were therefore moot.
