Jarrett v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CasePetitioner was found guilty of rape and first-degree battery. Petitioner later filed a petition requesting that jurisdiction be reinvested in the trial court so that he may proceed with a petition for writ of error coram nobis. The Supreme Court denied the petition, holding (1) Petitioner did not meet his burden of establishing that the prosecution withheld material evidence in violation of Brady v. Maryland; (2) Petitioner’s ineffective assistance of trial counsel claim was outside the purview of a coram-nobis proceeding; and (3) Petitioner’s claim that he was not afforded an adequate opportunity to present claims of ineffective assistance of counsel in a postconviction petition was not within the scope of a coram-nobis proceeding.
