FOR WRIT OF ERROR CORAM NOBIS [PULASKI STATE OF ARKANSAS COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT, FIRST RESPONDENT DIVISION, NO. 60CR-93-2903] HONORABLE MARION HUMPHREY, JUDGE PETITION DENIED. COURTNEY RAE HUDSON, Associate Justice Petitioner Timothy Wayne Kemp has filed his second application to reinvest jurisdiction in the Pulaski County Circuit Court to consider a petition for writ of error coram nobis. Kemp petitions for relief in both CR-95-549, his first direct appeal from his capital-murder convictions and death sentences, and CR-98-463, his second direct appeal following the resentencing hearing. See Kemp v. State, 324 Ark. 178, 919 S.W.2d 943 (1996) (CR-95-549); Kemp v. State, 335 Ark. 139, 983 S.W.2d 383 (1998) (CR-98-463). Kemp’s petitions in both cases are identical. For the reasons stated in our separate opinion issued today in Kemp v. State, 2021 Ark. 173, CR-95-549, we also deny his petition in the current case. Petition denied. Julie Pitt Vandiver, Ass’t Fed. Pub. Def., for appellant. Leslie Rutledge, Att’y Gen., by: Kent G. Holt, Ass’t Att’y Gen., for appellee.
