Vann Bragg v. State of Arkansas
April 20, 20232023 Ark. 66
Summary
The court affirmed Bragg’s convictions and sentences, holding that his challenge to the detective’s identification was not preserved because he raised a different objection below. It also rejected his hearsay, mistrial, prosecutorial-argument, and coram nobis claims, concluding that no abuse of discretion or sufficient prejudice was shown. The court cautioned prosecutors against seeking unauthorized postjudgment modifications to a codefendant’s conviction and sentence.
