Millsap v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseIn 1998, Appellant pleaded guilty to multiple felony offenses and was sentenced to an aggregate term of life imprisonment without parole. Thereafter, Appellant filed a petition for postconviction relief pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1, which was denied. In 2010, Appellant filed in the trial court a petition for writ of error coram nobis, arguing that he was denied effective assistance of counsel when he entered his guilty plea and during his Rule 37.1 proceeding. The trial court denied the petition. Now before the Supreme Court were Appellant’s pro se motion for extension of time to file his brief-in-chief and his petition for writ of certiorari in which he urged the Court to find that the trial court erred in denying his petition for writ of error coram nobis. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal and declared the motion and petition moot, holding that Appellant failed to establish a sufficient ground for issuance of the writ.
