ARKANSAS SUPREME COURT No. CR 07-1263 NICKOLAUS HAMPTON Appellant v. STATE OF ARKANSAS Appellee Opinion Delivered December 4, 2008 PETITION FOR REHEARING OR CORRECTION OF OPINION [CIRCUIT COURT OF PULASKI COUNTY, CR 2003-634, HON. CHRIS PIAZZA, JUDGE] PETITION DENIED. PER CURIAM Now before us is appellant’s petition for rehearing or correction of opinion. On September 18, 2008, this court affirmed the trial court’s denial of appellant’s petition pursuant to Arkansas Rule of Criminal Procedure 37.1. Hampton v. State, CR 07-1263 (Ark. Sept. 18, 2008) (per curiam). Appellant has failed to meet his burden of demonstrating entitlement to a rehearing pursuant to Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 2-3. In our opinion, we held that no fundamental or prejudicial error existed when the jury’s verdict in appellant’s criminal case was inconsistent with the verdict rendered in appellant’s codefendant’s trial. Appellant presented no error of law or fact in the decision that would merit a rehearing or correction of the opinion. Petition denied. Imber, J., not participating.
