View this case - free  

Overview: A trial court properly denied defendant's Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1 petition for postconviction relief because while the petition for postconviction relief was notarized, it did not contain an affidavit or statement substantially in the form of the affidavit required by Rule 37.1(c); hence, the trial court could not consider the issues in the petition.
