No. CR-98-463

Opinion Delivered: October 7, 2021 TIMOTHY WAYNE KEMP PETITION TO REINVEST PETITIONER JURISDICTION IN THE TRIAL COURT TO CONSIDER A PETITION V. FOR WRIT OF ERROR CORAM NOBIS [PULASKI COUNTY CIRCUIT STATE OF ARKANSAS COURT, FIRST DIVISION, NO. RESPONDENT 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 petitioner. Leslie Rutledge, Att’y Gen., by: Kent G. Holt, Ass’t Att’y Gen., for respondent.

 You are being directed to the most recent version of the statute which may not be the version considered at the time of the judgment.
