Supreme Court of Vermont

Decided September 7, 1982No. 85-81PublishedCited by 13 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtHill, J.

On April 1, 1980, the appellant filed a petition for post-conviction relief under 13 V.S.A. § 7131. The basis of his claim was that his trial attorney did not provide effective assistance of counsel, thereby abridging his rights under the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution and under article ten of chapter one of the Vermont Constitution. This is an appeal from the decision of the Chittenden Superior Court denying the petition for relief. We affirm.

We will review the relevant facts of this case in the context of the appellant’s specific allegations of counsel…
