Case Number
M2004-01557-CCA-R3-PC
The petitioner appeals the denial of post-conviction relief, alleging various instances of ineffective assistance of counsel as well as a violation of his rights under the Confrontation Clause. Upon review of the claim under the Confrontation Clause, we conclude that counsel was not ineffective and that the statement did not prejudice the petitioner. We further conclude that the evidence does not preponderate against the post-conviction court's finding that counsel rendered effective assistance of counsel. Therefore, we affirm the post-conviction court's denial of relief.
