Case Number
W2003-02669-CCA-R3-PC
The Petitioner, Derrick Taylor, was indicted for, and pled guilty to, aggravated assault. The trial court sentenced him to seven years, as a multiple offender, at thirty-five percent. The Petitioner filed a pro se petition for post-conviction relief, which the post-conviction court dismissed. The Petitioner now appeals contending that the post-conviction court erred when it dismissed his petition because: (1) his guilty plea was not knowingly and voluntarily entered; and (2) he received ineffective assistance of counsel. Finding no error in the judgment of the post-conviction court, we affirm its dismissal of the Petitioner’s petition for post-conviction relief.
