Supreme Court of Arkansas

Darryl Talley, Jr. v. State of Arkansas

October 24, 20192019 Ark. 293

Summary

The court denied Talley's petition to reinvest jurisdiction in the circuit court to consider a coram nobis petition. Talley did not plead specific facts establishing that the State suppressed material and prejudicial exculpatory evidence, and his allegations instead challenged counsel's failure to investigate or subpoena witnesses. Such ineffective-assistance claims must be raised through the applicable postconviction procedure, not coram nobis proceedings.
