Uvautai Brooks v. State of Tennessee

A Shelby County jury convicted the petitioner, Uvautai Brooks, of one count of aggravated robbery and three counts of facilitation of aggravated robbery. The trial court sentenced the petitioner, as a Standard Range I Offender, to serve an effective ten-year sentence in the Tennessee Department of Correction. The petitioner filed for post-conviction relief alleging the ineffective assistance of counsel. The post-conviction court denied the petitioner’s claim, and the petitioner appeals the decision of the court. After reviewing the record, the parties’ briefs, and the applicable law, we affirm the decision of the post-conviction court.
