State v. Robinson
Annotate this CaseFollowing a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of first degree murder and use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony. The Supreme Court affirmed Defendant's convictions and sentences. Defendant subsequently filed a petition for postconviction relief, claiming that his trial and appellate counsel provided ineffective assistance in several respects. Defendant's trial counsel was also his appellate counsel. The district court ruled that Defendant's counsel was not ineffective. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the district court did not err in denying Defendant's motion for postconviction relief, as Defendant failed to establish that he was prejudiced by his counsel's representation, and there was no merit to Defendant's assignments of error.
