Lionel Michael Miller v. State of Florida

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that conclusory allegations of ineffective assistance of counsel consisting of a single statement are insufficient and therefore waived
• holding that “an appellate court evaluating a claim of ineffectiveness is not required to issue a specific ruling on one component of the test when it is evident that the other component is not satisfied”
• holding, consistent with Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984), that a claim for ineffective assistance of counsel must satisfy two criteria: counsel’s deficient performance and prejudice to the defendant
• “Ineffective assistance claims are reviewed under a mixed standard of review because the performance and prejudice prongs of Strickland present mixed questions of law and fact.”
