How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that, generally, a violation of this right “triggers reversal and remand for a new trial whenever the issue is properly raised on direct appeal”
- noting that a critical difference between the federal right and the state right is that a violation of the federal right is subject to a harmless-error review while a violation of the state right is presumed to be prejudicial
- defendant must show both deficient performance and resulting prejudice to establish ineffective assistance due to violation of right to be present
- even if defendant’s trial counsel was deficient, failure to demonstrate prejudice was fatal to ineffective assistance claim
- “The United States and Georgia Constitutions both secure the fundamental right of criminal defendants to be present at all critical stages of the proceedings against them.”
