Supreme Court of Arkansas

Androus Hall, Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee

March 2, 20172017 Ark. LEXIS 56

Summary

The court dismissed Hall’s appeal from the denial of his Act 1780 petition because the record conclusively showed that he could not prevail. Hall failed to rebut the statutory presumption against timeliness and failed to establish that the proposed electron-microscope testing would produce new, material evidence or a reasonable probability of nonculpability. His motion for an extension of time to file a brief was therefore moot.
