Justin Mathis v. State of Tennessee

A jury convicted the petitioner, Justin Mathis, of first degree murder. The trial court sentenced him to life imprisonment. On direct appeal, this court upheld the petitioner’s conviction and sentence. The petitioner filed a petition for post-conviction alleging ineffective assistance of counsel. The post-conviction court denied relief, and the petitioner now appeals. Following a review of the parties’ briefs, the record, and applicable law, we affirm the denial of post-conviction relief.
