Grant v. State
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Petitioner was found guilty of capital murder and battery in the first degree. The Supreme Court affirmed. Petitioner later filed a petition for postconviction relief, which the trial court denied. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal. Petitioner then filed a request that the Supreme Court reinvest jurisdiction in the trial court so that he may proceed with a petition for writ of error coram nobis. Petitioner also sought an injunction arising out of the coram-nobis proceeding. The Supreme Court denied the petition and declared the request for an injunction moot, holding that Petitioner failed to state a cause to reinvest jurisdiction in the trial court to consider a petition for writ of error coram nobis, and thus the request for an injunction was moot.
