Supreme Court of Arkansas
Willie Gaster Davis, Jr., Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee
January 19, 20172017 Ark. LEXIS 11
Summary
The court denied Davis's second petition seeking permission to pursue a writ of error coram nobis based on alleged suppression of hair-analysis evidence and cigarette butts. The court held that Davis failed to show that the evidence was suppressed or that its disclosure would create a reasonable probability of a different verdict in light of the trial evidence. The court also concluded that the renewed claims did not justify permitting another coram-nobis proceeding. No separate opinions were filed.
