Marcus Dwayne Townsend v. State of Tennessee

Syllabus

The Petitioner appeals from the Davidson County Criminal Court's denial of his post-conviction petition related to his guilty plea convictions of two counts of rape of a child, for which he is serving concurrent twenty-five-year sentences as a violent child rapist with 100% service. On appeal, he contends that the post-conviction court erred in denying his petition and argues that he received the ineffective assistance of counsel. We affirm the judgment of the post-conviction court.

Judges: Judge Robert H. Montgomery, Jr.
