Hogue v. State
Annotate this CaseA jury found petitioner Greg Hogue guilty of capital murder for the death of an owner of a convenience store and sentenced Hogue to life imprisonment without parole. Hogue subsequently filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking leave to file a petition in the circuit court for writ of error coram nobis, alleging that the prosecution withheld five documents from the defense in violation of the requirements of Brady v. Maryland. The Supreme Court denied Hogue's petition, holding that Hogue failed to set forth a basis for issuance of the writ because (1) defense counsel was aware of the existence of four of the documents, and (2) Hogue failed to demonstrate that there was a reasonable probability that the judgment of conviction would not have been rendered had the document in the last document been disclosed at trial.
