  2. Eason v. State

    517 So. 2d 654 (Ala. Crim. App. 1987)

    TAYLOR, Judge. We found it necessary to remand this case to the circuit court for a hearing on the petition for writ of error coram nobis, because of the allegation of ineffective assistance of counsel, 499 So.2d 819. The office of the writ of error coram nobis is to bring to the attention of the court an error of fact not appearing on the face of the record, which was unknown to the court or to the party affected, and which, if known in time, would have prevented the judgment of conviction. Carter v. State, 473 So.2d 668 (Ala.Cr.App. 1985). None of the issues raised by Eason, other than ineffective assistance of counsel, meets the test of Carter, supra.
