Supreme Court of Arkansas
Ronnie Johnson, Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee
October 6, 20162016 Ark. LEXIS 273
Summary
The court dismissed Johnson’s appeal from the denial of coram-nobis and illegal-sentence relief because the record showed that he could not prevail. It held that his allegations concerning counsel’s failure to obtain surveillance video asserted ineffective assistance, which is not cognizable in a coram-nobis proceeding, and that his allegations did not establish a coerced guilty plea or a facially illegal sentence. The dismissal rendered his motion for a transcribed record and extension of time moot.
