How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- acknowledging that leave of court to file a successive post-conviction petition may be based on actual innocence alone
- \Evidence is considered cumulative when it adds nothing to what was already before the jury.\
- to support a claim of actual innocence, the evidence must be newly discovered, material and not merely cumulative, and of such a conclusive character that it would probably change the result on retrial
