Croston v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Appellant was convicted of aggravated robbery and theft of property. No appeal was taken. Appellant later filed a pro se petition for writ of error coram nobis, alleging that the trial court erred in declining to grant a continuance, to consider certain proof that Appellant was mentally deficient, to admit certain evidence at trial, and to suspend proceedings so a psychological evaluation could be conducted on Appellant. The trial court court denied the petition. The Supreme Court dismissed Appellant's appeal, holding that because Appellant did not raise a claim within the scope of a coram-nobis proceeding, the trial court did not err in denying the petition.
