Lavoyce Wilder v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed the denial and dismissal of Wilder’s Rule 37.1 petition. It held that most of his arguments were not preserved because they were raised for the first time on appeal, that his prosecutorial-misconduct claim was not cognizable in a Rule 37.1 proceeding, and that his ineffective-assistance allegations were conclusory or failed to establish prejudice. No separate opinions were filed.
