Supreme Court of Arkansas
Timothy Wayne Kemp v. State of Arkansas
October 7, 20212021 Ark. 173
Summary
The court denied Kemp’s second petition to reinvest jurisdiction in the circuit court for coram nobis relief based on alleged suppression of four categories of evidence. It held that none of the alleged nondisclosures established a reasonable probability of a different trial or resentencing outcome, so the proposed attacks on the judgments lacked apparent merit. The court therefore declined to reach the State’s alternative argument that Kemp had failed to pursue the claims diligently.
