1Opinion of the Court
CYNTHIA L. MARTIN, Judge.
Ryan Ferguson (“Ferguson”) was convicted in 2005 of felony murder in the second degree and first degree robbery. Ferguson filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus, petitioning this court to vacate his convictions and to grant him a new trial either: (i) because newly discovered evidence clearly and convincingly establishes that he is actually innocent thus undermining confidence in his conviction, or (ii) because he has established a gateway permitting review of procedurally defaulted claims that his due process rights were violated depriving him of a fair trial.
