McClinton v. State (Majority)
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court denied Petitioner's pro se third petition to reinvest jurisdiction in the trial court to consider a writ of error coram nobis, holding that Petitioner failed to demonstrate in the petition that the writ should issue.
In his petition, Petitioner argued that information was withheld in violation of Brady v. Maryland 373 U.S. 83 (1963), that the trial court lacked jurisdiction, and that there was no "bindover" at a preliminary hearing or grand jury. The Supreme Court denied the petition, holding (1) the majority of Petitioner's claims were an abuse of the writ; and (2) Petitioner's conclusory claims were not grounds for the writ.
