L. Corbin, Justice.

Appellant Roger Lewis Coulter was convicted of capital murder and sentenced to death for killing a five-year-old girl during the course of and in furtherance of raping her. This court affirmed the conviction and sentence in Coulter v. State, 304 Ark. 527, 804 S.W.2d 348, cert. denied, 502 U.S. 829 (1991). The current appeal is from the order of the Ashley County Circuit Court denying Appellant’s petition for postconviction relief. Our jurisdiction of this appeal is pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37 and Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 1-2(a)(8). We find no error and affirm.
