In 1981, the defendant pled guilty to an indictment charging the unlawful sale of "Preludin". Subsequently, that conviction was overturned in 1984 when the circuit court granted a petition for writ of error coram nobis and ordered a new trial. In April of 1984, the defendant was "re-indicted" for the sale of "phenmetrazine". Subsequently, the trial court dismissed this "re-indictment"…
