Jones v. State

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• “[T]he State would . . . be prejudiced by being forced to rely on a document instead of testimony—which would have constituted more compelling evidence.”
• “It is difficult to imagine anything more prejudicial than the circumstance that the State’s only eyewitness can no longer testify about what the eyewitness saw.”
• “[W]e unequivocally hold that the doctrine of laches may, as an affirmative defense in a coram nobis action, bar an individual’s ability to seek coram nobis relief.”
• “In assessing whether the party unreasonably delayed before filing, the court first ascertains the length of the delay, then decides whether the delay was unreasonable. . . . Thus, a court’s first task is to determine when the delay began.”
• “The passage of time, alone, does not constitute laches[.]”
