Terry L. Baker v. State of Tennessee

The petitioner sought post-conviction relief because of ineffective assistance of counsel at the resentencing hearing and on appeal. The trial court found that the sentence imposed was pursuant to an agreement. We conclude the record preponderates against such a finding. We further conclude that the record was insufficient to show that the guilty plea was knowingly and voluntarily entered.  The defendant’s twenty-year sentence is vacated, and this cause remanded for resentencing.
