Terry Swanigan v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court denied Swanigan’s fourth petition to reinvest jurisdiction in the trial court for coram nobis proceedings and deemed his motion to supplement moot. It held that his repeated claims concerning alleged false or coerced testimony were barred as an abuse of the remedy, his new coercion claim lacked factual support, the laboratory submission form was not favorable or exculpatory evidence, and challenges to witness credibility or evidentiary sufficiency were not cognizable in coram nobis proceedings.
