Willie L. Watkins v. State of Tennessee

The petitioner, Willie L. Watkins, appeals from the Madison County Circuit Court’s denial of his petition for post-conviction relief from his guilty-plea convictions of three counts of sale of one-half gram or less of cocaine and resulting eight-year sentence. The petitioner contends that he received the ineffective assistance of counsel and that he did not knowingly and voluntarily enter into the guilty pleas. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
