“extraordinary circumstances are present.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“On remand, therefore, the district court should make the necessary factual findings and determine whether Nicks had “sound reasons” for his lengthy delay in seeking coram nobis relief. If the district court decides there was not sufficient justification for his failure to seek relief at an earlier time, the writ is unavailable and his petition for coram nobis should be dismissed. If, on the other hand, it is determined that Nicks is entitled to coram no-bis relief, it is then necessary to decide whether a competency hearing was in fact constitutionally required at the time of his plea and sentencing in 1974-75.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“THE COURT: Are you satisfied in your own mind, Mr. Coneannon, that Mr. Nicks understands the significance of what he is asking to be done? MR. CONCANNON: Yes, I do. I am satisfied, your Honor. In addition, your Honor, I still believe at the time of the inquiry of the plea that Mr. Nicks knew what he was doing, he understood what was happening.”
