Kelly Lamont Oliver v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Oliver’s petition for a writ of error coram nobis. It held that ineffective-assistance claims are not cognizable in coram-nobis proceedings and that Oliver failed to show an extrinsic, previously unavailable fact establishing a coerced plea, incompetency, or insanity. His allegations were instead matters that could have been raised under the applicable postconviction rule.
