Smith v. State
Annotate this CaseAppellant entered a plea of guilty to robbery. Subsequently, Appellant filed in the trial court a pro se petition for writ of error coram nobis, which was denied. Appellant lodged an appeal in the Supreme Court and filed a motion to have leave to file a belated brief-in-chief. The Court dismissed the appeal and declared the motion moot, holding that Appellant could not prevail if the appeal were permitted to go forward because (1) Appellant's claims were not within the purview of an error coram nobis proceeding, and (2) any grounds for the writ that Appellant might state would be moot.
