hln 1995, petitioner Malik A. Khabir, who is also known as Leroy McCoy, was found guilty of delivery of a controlled substance and sentenced to 480 months’ imprisonment and a $5000 fine. Because the offense was committed within 1000 feet of a park, the sentence was enhanced pursuant to Arkansas Code Annotated section 5-64-411(a) (Supp.1995). We affirmed. McCoy v. State, 326 Ark. 104, 929 S.W.2d 712 (1996).

On July 15, 2014, petitioner filed the instant motion, seeking at public expense a copy of the appellant’s brief-in-chief filed in the direct appeal of the judgment. Petitioner appended his affidavit of indigency to the motion.

As grounds for the request for the copy, petitioner states that he is seeking to get his case back before the courts with the assistance of a legal organization and that he is unable to pay the photocopying fee for a copy of the brief. Petitioner has not stated good cause to grant the motion.

Indigency alone does not entitle a petitioner to free copying of material on file with either |aof our appellate courts. See Williams v. State, 2014 Ark. 70, 2014 WL 585996 (per curiam); see also Mendiola v. State, 2013 Ark. 92, 2013 Ark. 92 (per curiam); Daniels v. State, 2012 Ark. 124, 2012 WL 859701 (per curiam); Cox v. State, 2011 Ark. 96, 2011 WL 737307 (per curiam); Evans v. State, 2009 Ark. 529, 2009 WL 3488388 (per curiam); Nooner v. State, 352 Ark. 481, 101 S.W.3d 834 (2003) (per curiam). A petitioner seeking a copy of written material filed in the course of the direct appeal of a judgment of conviction ^[1] must show a compelling need for the copy to support a specific allegation contained in a timely petition for postconviction relief. See Williams, 2014 Ark. 70; see also Mendiola, 2013 Ark. 92; Vance v. State, 2012 Ark. 254, 2012 WL 1950406 (per curiam); Daniels, 2012 Ark. 124; Henderson v. State, 2011 Ark. 522, 2011 WL 6091359 (per curiam); Hickey v. State, 2010 Ark. 299, 2010 WL 2473342 (per curiam); Avery v. State, 2009 Ark. 528, 2009 WL 3488399 (per curiam); Bradshaw v. State, 372 Ark. 305, 275 S.W.3d 173 (2008) (per curiam).

Petitioner has not established that there is a postconviction remedy available to him at this time in either state or federal court. See Ward v. State, 2013 Ark. 250, 2013 WL 2460209 (per curiam). Moreover, even if there is a remedy available, he has not demonstrated that there is any particular issue that he cannot adequately raise to the court without access to the brief he seeks to obtain. Accordingly, he has failed to show that he has a compelling need for the brief to warrant providing it to him at public expense. Williams, 2014 Ark. 70; see also Mendiola, 2013 Ark. 92; see also Daniels, 2012 Ark. 124; Hickey, 2010 Ark. 299; Johnson v. State, 2010 Ark. 15, 2010 WL 135200 (per curiam).

Motion denied.
