How courts have described this case

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

  • “[A] failure to meet either of the [Strickland] prongs is fatal to an ineffectiveness claim.”
  • where defendant failed to offer evidence of what an uncalled witness’s testimony would have been, there was no basis for a ruling of ineffectiveness grounded on counsel’s failure to call that witness
  • evidence sufficient despite testimony that appellant did not participate in planning the crimes because evidence showed that appellant became aware of the plan before the shooting, agreed to be the get-away driver, and helped to conceal the firearm used in the crimes
