Supreme Court of Arkansas
Larry Rayford v. State of Arkansas
May 24, 2018546 S.W.3d 475
Summary
The court denied Rayford's fourth petition seeking permission to pursue a writ of error coram nobis based on an alleged undisclosed relationship between the competency evaluator and the Arkansas Department of Correction. The court held that Rayford failed to provide specific facts showing that the evaluator's association affected his competency determination or that any previously unknown fact would have prevented judgment. Because he did not satisfy the stringent requirements for coram nobis relief, the petition was denied.
