Robinson v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Petitioner was found guilty of two counts each of attempted first-degree murder and first-degree battery. The court of appeals affirmed. Petitioner subsequently filed a pro se petition for postconviction relief pursuant to Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1, alleging ineffective assistance of trial counsel. The trial court denied the petition without a hearing. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that, based on a totality of the evidence, the trial court did not clearly err in denying Petitioner’s petition, as Petitioner did not meet his burden of overcoming the presumption that his trial counsel was effective.
