Markus v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant entered a pea of guilty to two counts of rape and was sentenced to serve an aggregate term of 360 months’ imprisonment. Appellant subsequently filed in the trial court a pro se petition for writ of error coram nobis, arguing that he was incompetent when the plea was entered and that a competency hearing should have been held before the plea was entered. The trial court denied the petition. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the trial court did not err in denying the coram-nobis petition because Appellant failed to assert facts in support of the allegations contained in the petition that established a ground for the writ.
