Barker v. Barrow
Annotate this CaseThe court granted defendant a certificate of probable cause to appeal an order of the Superior Court denying his application for a writ of habeas corpus in order to consider whether the habeas court erred in concluding that trial counsel was not ineffective for failing to further investigate the actual validity of defendant's prior convictions in the face of the State's notice of intent to rely on those convictions for sentencing enhancement purposes. Finding that it was not error to reject the claims of the ineffectiveness of counsel on the basis urged, the court affirmed the denial of habeas corpus relief.
