State of Arkansas, Appellant v. Mario D. Thompson, Appellee — Hart, J., Dissenting

Summary

Justice Hart dissented from the majority's reversal of postconviction relief, arguing that the circuit court did not clearly err in finding prejudice from counsel's sentencing errors. She maintained that the majority improperly applied an effectively impossible prejudice standard to a defendant who received a discretionary sentence below the maximum and urged reconsideration of that standard. No separate opinions were provided.
