Griffin v. State (Majority, with Dissenting)
Annotate this CaseThe Supreme Court dismissed Appellant’s appeal from the denial by the trial court of his pro se petition for writ of error coram nobis, which rendered moot Appellant’s motion for extension of brief time, holding that it was clear from the record that Appellant could not prevail on appeal. In his coram nobis petition, Appellant argued that he would not have pleaded guilty if he had been properly advised by his attorney and that he did not commit the offense of which he was convicted. The Supreme Court held that none of Appellant’s claims were cognizable as a ground for the writ, and therefore, the trial court did not err in denying the petition.
