Hill v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseIn 1984, Appellant was convicted of two counts each of rape, aggravated robbery, and kidnapping. Appellant later filed a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus under Act 1780 of 2001 Acts of Arkansas asserting generally that there was scientific evidence available to show his actual innocence. The trial court dismissed the petition, and Appellant appealed. The Supreme Court dismissed Appellant’s appeal and mooted the motions Appellant filed related to his appeal, holding that Appellant failed to demonstrate clear error in the trial court’s decision to dismiss the petition.
