Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Ex Parte Neal Hampton Robbins, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee
June 29, 2011360 S.W.3d 446
Summary
The Court of Criminal Appeals denied Neal Hampton Robbins' habeas corpus petition, holding that he failed to meet the stringent actual‑innocence standard and that the State's use of Dr. Moore's trial testimony did not constitute false‑testimony that violated the Fourteenth Amendment due process clause. The dissenting opinions argue that the scientific uncertainty and recanted testimony warrant a new trial.
