Supreme Court of Arkansas

Travis Price v. State of Arkansas

March 9, 2023660 S.W.3d 316

Summary

The court affirmed the denial and dismissal of Price’s postconviction petition. It held that several arguments were not preserved because they were either expanded or raised for the first time on appeal, while the preserved ineffective-assistance claims were conclusory and failed to establish deficient performance or prejudice. The court also held that Price offered no specific evidence showing that the proposed mitigation witness could have changed the outcome.
