Lambert v. State
Annotate this Case
Appellant Corey Lambert was convicted on charges of attempted murder in the first degree, aggravated robbery, and theft of property. The court of appeals affirmed Appellant's convictions. Appellant subsequently filed a petition for postconviction relief, stating four grounds for relief in his petition. All of Appellant's stated grounds alleged ineffective assistance of counsel in connection with the State's failure to introduce certain physical evidence during Appellant's jury trial. The trial court denied the petition. Appellant appealed, and before the Supreme Court was a motion Appellant filed related to his appeal. The Court dismissed the appeal and declared the motion moot, holding that Appellant's petition was clearly without merit, as Appellant failed to demonstrate that counsel might have raised a successful challenge to the disputed evidence, and none of Appellant's grounds for relief demonstrated prejudice.
