Jason Lee Fisher v. State of Tennessee

Syllabus

This consolidated appeal is before this court on the Petitioner, Jason Lee Fisher's, application for permission to appeal the Marshall County Circuit Court's denial of his petition for a writ of error coram nobis and the denial of his motion to reopen post-conviction proceedings. The Petitioner argues that the circuit court1 erred in denying both his petition for a writ of error coram nobis and his motion to reopen post-conviction proceedings based upon a claim of juror bias during his trial. He also raises constitutional challenges to the error coram nobis and motion to reopen post-conviction statutes. Finally, he contends that the circuit court erred by finding that he failed to establish prejudice on his juror bias claim. Discerning no error, we affirm the judgment of the circuit court denying the petition for a writ of error coram nobis, and we deny the Petitioner's application for permission to appeal the denial of his motion to reopen post-conviction proceedings.
