Cite as 2013 Ark. 132 SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS No. CR12-887 Opinion Delivered March 28, 2013 GARLAND JAMES GREEN PRO SE MOTION TO SUPPLEMENT APPELLANT RECORD [PULASKI COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT, 60CR 08-4448] v. STATE OF ARKANSAS APPELLEE MOTION MOOT. PER CURIAM Appellant Garland James Green has lodged a pro se appeal in this court from the order that denied his pro se petition for postconviction relief filed pursuant to Arkansas Criminal Procedure Rule 37.1 (2012). He now seeks to supplement the record on appeal with the transcript lodged in the direct appeal of his conviction in the case. The motion is moot because it is not necessary for an appellant in a postconviction appeal to seek leave to add the direct appeal record in the same criminal case to the record lodged in the postconviction appeal. This court has consistently held that the record of an appellant’s trial that was filed with this court is considered by this court in a postconviction appeal without need to supplement the record.
