Supreme Court of Arkansas

Nicholas Addison v. State of Arkansas

September 17, 2020606 S.W.3d 73

Summary

The court affirmed the denial and dismissal of Nicholas Addison's petition for a writ of error coram nobis. It held that Addison's conclusory allegations of deception, ineffective assistance, sentencing errors, and plea-proceeding irregularities either were unsupported, were not cognizable in coram nobis proceedings, or belonged in a postconviction proceeding under Rule 37.1. The court also held that the trial court did not err by relying on its prior Rule 37.1 order.
