Supreme Court of Arkansas

Terry Antonio Lee, Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee

July 21, 20162016 Ark. LEXIS 234

Summary

The court remanded Lee’s postconviction case because the trial court did not make sufficiently specific findings concerning whether counsel was ineffective for failing to preserve sufficiency challenges through adequate directed-verdict motions. It also directed the trial court to supplement the appellate record with the transcripts and evidence from the evidentiary hearings and permitted Lee to proceed in forma pauperis. The remaining claims were held in abeyance pending return of the remand.
