Jeffery Yates v. State of Tennessee

The petitioner, Jeffery Yates, was convicted of aggravated robbery and sentenced as a career offender to confinement for thirty years at sixty percent. Following his unsuccessful appeal of his conviction, he filed a petition for post-conviction relief, alleging that trial and appellate counsel were ineffective. After an evidentiary hearing, the post-conviction court determined that the petition was without merit, and we affirm the dismissal.
