Brian J. Dorsey v. State of Missouri

Supreme Court of Missouri

Decided November 12, 2014No. SC93168PublishedCited by 79 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtPatricia Breckenridge, Judge

Brian J. Dorsey appeals the judgment overruling his motion for post-conviction relief, pursuant to Rule 24.035 and Rule 29.15, from his 2008 convictions and sentences for two counts of first-degree murder. Because Mr. Dorsey was sentenced to death on each count, this Court has jurisdiction. Mo. Const, art. V, sec. 10. On appeal, Mr. Dorsey claims that the motion court erred in overruling his claims that he received ineffective assistance from his trial counsel and that the state failed to disclose exculpatory evidence. This Court affirms the motion court’s judgment.
