Opinion

BISHOP, J.

The petitioner, Timothy J. Solek, appeals from the judgment of the habeas court dismissing his amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Following the dismissal, the court granted the petition for certification to appeal. On appeal, the petitioner claims that the court improperly (1) determined that he had abandoned the claims of the first count of his habeas petition and (2) concluded that he was not denied the effective assistance of trial and appellate counsel. We affirm the judgment of the habeas court.

The following undisputed facts and procedural history are relevant…
