Carroll v. State (Majority)
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court denied Petitioner's pro se second petition to reinvest jurisdiction in the trial court to consider a writ of error coram nobis, holding that none of Petitioner's claims established a ground for the writ.
After a jury trial, Petitioner was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to 540 months' imprisonment. In Petitioner's pro se second coram nobis petition Petitioner alleged, among other things, that insufficient evidence supported his conviction and that trial counsel was ineffective. The Supreme Court denied the petition, which rendered Petitioner's motion for appointment of counsel moot, holding that Petitioner's claims were outside the purview of coram nobis proceedings.
