IMO of the Petition of Thomas Miller for a Writ of Certiorari

Summary

The Court dismissed Thomas Miller’s petition for a writ of certiorari because he failed to satisfy the threshold requirements for that extraordinary remedy. Miller had already exercised his right to appeal, and the Court concluded that he had not shown denial of appellate rights, a grave question of public policy, or the absence of another avenue for review. The Court noted that any newly discovered evidence suggesting actual innocence could instead be presented through a postconviction motion.
