Elgin King v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court denied King's petition to reinvest jurisdiction in the circuit court to consider coram nobis relief. It held that his prosecutorial-vindictiveness claim concerned matters apparent from the record and therefore was not cognizable in coram nobis, while his challenge to the habitual-offender sentence was an illegal-sentence claim for which coram nobis was not the proper remedy. No separate opinions were filed.
