Dixon v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Appellant was found guilty of capital felony murder and sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. After Appellant’s conviction was affirmed on appeal, Appellant filed a pro se petition for postconviction relief, alleging ineffective assistance of trial counsel. The trial court denied the petition without a hearing. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that (1) some of Appellant’s claims were conclusory and raised for the first time on appeal and thus not subject to review; and (2) the remainder of Appellant’s claims of error were without merit.
