ARKANSAS SUPREME COURT

NOT DESIGNATED FOR PUBLICATION

PER CURIAM

MAY 8, 2003

RICKIE EARN BERNA

Appellant

v.

M. D. REED

Appellee

02-569

APPEAL FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF LINCOLN COUNTY, LCIV 2001-105-3, HONORABLE FRED D. DAVIS III, JUDGE

PETITION FOR REHEARING DENIED

Appellant petitions for rehearing in this case. He contends that the court's opinion affirming the denial of his pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus contained errors of law and fact. See Berna v. Reed, CR 02-569 (Apr. 10, 2003)(unpublished).

Rule 2-3(g) of the Rules of the Arkansas Supreme Court provides that the petition for rehearing should be used to call attention to specific errors of law or fact which an opinion is thought to contain. A rehearing petition is not intended to afford an opportunity for a mere repetition of the argument already considered. In his petition, however, appellant simply reargues two of the issues raised in his original brief. Accordingly, we deny his petition for rehearing.

Petition for rehearing denied.
