Stephen D. Lester, Sr. v. State of Tennessee

Syllabus

The Petitioner, Stephen D. Lester, Sr., appeals the post-conviction court's dismissal of his petition for post-conviction relief as untimely. On appeal, he argues that due process requires tolling of the statute of limitations because his untimely filing was due to misrepresentations by trial counsel. After review, we affirm the dismissal of the petition.

Judges: Judge Alan E. Glenn
