Supreme Court of Arkansas

Randy James Myers v. State of Arkansas

April 29, 2021621 S.W.3d 148

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of coram nobis relief because Myers did not show that allegedly exculpatory chat transcripts were suppressed or that their absence prejudiced his no-contest plea. The court also held that an alleged violation of Administrative Order No. 5 was an ordinary record-based claim that should have been raised earlier, not a fundamental extrinsic factual error cognizable in coram nobis. No separate opinions were filed.
