Tai A. Pham, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee; Tai A. Pham, Petitioner, v. Julie L. Jone — Pariente, J…

Summary

Justice Pariente concurs in the majority’s affirmation of the denial of post‑conviction relief, agreeing that Pham failed to show prejudice on his ineffective‑assistance claim. He disagrees, however, with the majority’s analysis of the performance component, arguing that the court need not address performance when prejudice is absent.
