Varchetta v. Commissioner of Correction
Connecticut Appellate Court
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion
ROBINSON, J.
The petitioner, Anthony Varchetta, appeals following the denial of his petition for certification to appeal from the judgment of the habeas court denying his second petition for a writ of habeas corpus. On appeal, the petitioner claims that the habeas court abused its discretion when it denied his petition for certification to appeal and that he is entitled to habeas relief because the habeas court erred by using the wrong standard to conclude that he was afforded the effective assistance of both trial and habeas counsel.1 We dismiss the appeal.
