Torian Dillard v. State of Tennessee

The petitioner, Torian Dillard, appeals the post-conviction court’s dismissal of his petition for post-conviction relief for failure to prosecute, arguing that the court abused its discretion by not appointing new counsel after the petitioner’s appointed counsel was allowed to withdraw and by requiring the petitioner to proceed with his petition pro se. Following our review, we affirm the post-conviction court’s dismissal of the petition.
