Coy J. Cotham, Jr., AKA Cory J. Cotham v. State of Tennessee
Syllabus
Petitioner, Coy J. Cotham, Jr., appeals the denial of his petition for post-conviction relief, in which he alleged that his trial counsel was ineffective. Petitioner contends that the post-conviction court erred by denying his pro se motion to relieve post-conviction counsel, or in the alternative, his motion to continue the post-conviction hearing that his post-conviction counsel was ineffective for failing to adequately present his claims for post-conviction relief and that the post-conviction court erred by denying his petition for post-conviction relief. Having reviewed the record and the briefs of the parties, we affirm the judgment of the post-conviction court.
Judges: Judge Thomas T. Woodall
