Donald C. McCary v. State of Tennessee

The petitioner, Donald C. McCary, appeals the trial court's denial of his petition for post-conviction relief. In this appeal, he alleges (1) that he was not competent to enter pleas of guilty; (2) that he did not knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently plead guilty; (3) that the trial court impermissibly participated in plea negotiations; (4) that he did not receive the effective assistance of counsel; and (5) that he is entitled to post-conviction relief because a presentence report was not prepared before the sentencing hearing. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
