Randall Thomas McArty v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of both of McArty’s postconviction petitions. It held that his requested scientific testing was not cognizable under Act 1780 because the identity of the perpetrator was never at issue, and that his challenge to the jury’s composition did not establish a facially illegal sentence or a jurisdictional defect. No separate opinion is included in the record provided.
