State of Arizona, Respondent v. Knute Eckhard Kolmann, Petitioner

Summary

The court affirmed summary dismissal of Kolmann’s post-conviction claims alleging ineffective assistance of trial and appellate counsel and juror misconduct. Counsel was not shown to have performed unreasonably, and Kolmann could not establish prejudice because the juror was properly excused, the remaining jurors were instructed to involve the alternate in discussing all counts, and the reconstituted jury was impartial and unanimous.
