Supreme Court of Arkansas

Jimmy Smith, Petitioner v. State of Arkansas, Respondent

December 20, 2018562 S.W.3d 211

Summary

The court denied Smith's second petition seeking permission to pursue coram nobis relief because his previously raised claims were an abuse of the writ and his new habitual-offender claim did not satisfy the requirements for coram nobis relief. The court also rejected his attempt to combine coram nobis relief with a motion to recall the mandate because he did not identify a cognizable basis for recalling the mandate. No separate opinions were filed.
