Mitchell v. State

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Mitchell’s petition for a writ of error coram nobis. It held that his ineffective-assistance, insufficient-evidence, and alleged coercion claims either were not cognizable in coram-nobis proceedings, had previously been raised, or lacked the specific facts required for relief, and it concluded that his life sentence was not facially illegal. The court also declined to consider claims that were not presented to or ruled on by the trial court.
