Supreme Court of Arkansas

Michael Daniels v. State of Arkansas

October 14, 20212021 Ark. 182

Summary

The court denied Daniels’s petition to reinvest the trial court with jurisdiction to consider a coram nobis petition because ineffective-assistance claims do not establish a basis for that writ when a postconviction remedy was available. The court also denied as moot his request for appointed counsel. The court declined to treat the petition as a motion for leave to file a belated postconviction petition.
