Case Number
M2002-00789-CCA-R3-CO
The petitioner, Richard Lynn Norton, was convicted in 1989 of aggravated assault and assault. He received an effective sentence of ten years incarceration in the Tennessee Department of Correction. Subsequently, the petitioner filed for habeas corpus relief, contending that the indictment charging him with aggravated assault was defective and therefore his conviction for aggravated assault is void. The trial court denied the petition for habeas corpus relief and the petitioner appealed to this court. Upon review of the record and the parties' briefs, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
