Supreme Court of Arkansas

Steven C. Hayes v. State of Arkansas

October 8, 2020608 S.W.3d 142

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Hayes's petitions for a writ of error coram nobis. It held that Hayes failed to establish an extrinsic fundamental error based on insanity, coercion, or suppression of material exculpatory evidence. The court concluded that the record showed competency, voluntariness, and no reasonable probability that the alleged undisclosed evidence would have changed the result.
