Daryl O. McCleese v. United States
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
Decided February 2, 1996No. 95-1312PublishedCited by 165 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
KANNE, Circuit Judge.
The defendant filed a motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 seeking to vacate his sentence on the grounds that he received constitutionally ineffective assistance of counsel and his guilty plea was not knowingly and intelligently made. The district court denied the motion because it found that by failing to raise his claims on direct appeal, the defendant had procedurally defaulted his right to raise it under § 2255. The question before us is whether the defendant has shown cause and prejudice to excuse that default.
