Jackson v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of capital murder, criminal attempt to commit capital murder, and aggravated robbery. Defendant subsequently filed a pro se petition for postconviction relief. The circuit court denied the requested relief. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the circuit court did not err in (1) failing to hold a hearing on Defendant's petition; (2) concluding that there was no merit to Defendant's argument that he was subjected to double jeopardy by being convicted of both capital murder and aggravated robbery; and (3) concluding that none of Defendant's claims of ineffective assistance of counsel had merit.
