Williams v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Appellant was found guilty of forgery in the first degree and sentenced to 480 months’ imprisonment. The court of appeals affirmed and remanded to correct the sentencing order to reflect that Appellant was a habitual offender. Appellant subsequently filed a pro se petition for postconviction relief pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1, raising some of the allegations that he raised in the trial court as grounds for reversal and raising new claims. Following a hearing, the trial court denied the petition. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the circuit court did not err by not granting relief on Appellant’s claims.
