Supreme Court of Arkansas

Larry Rayford v. State of Arkansas

October 1, 20202020 Ark. 299

Summary

The court denied Rayford's petition for a writ of certiorari and alternative motion to recall the mandate because the trial judge's posttrial order was an administrative, favorable order that neither constituted a manifest abuse of discretion nor affected the conviction or appellate process. The court also denied Rayford's motion to amend because the order was not reviewed on direct appeal, so the court had no obligation to raise recusal sua sponte. No separate opinions were filed.
