Supreme Court of Arkansas February 2, 1981, CR 75-110 (Collins v. State)

PER CURIAM.

Petitioner Carl Albert Collins was convicted by a jury in 1974 of capital felony murder and sentenced to death by electrocution. The primary issue on appeal was the constitutionality of Act 438 of 1973, Ark. Stat. Ann. § 41-4701 et seq (Supp. 1973), which reinstated the death penalty. This Court found the statute constitutional and affirmed the conviction on December 22, 1975.
