Supreme Court of Georgia
Ivey v. the State.
February 18, 2019824 S.E.2d 242
Summary
The court affirmed Ivey's convictions for felony murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, holding that the evidence was sufficient for the jury to reject his self-defense claim. The court also rejected his ineffective-assistance claims because he failed to establish deficient performance, prejudice, or preservation of one claim. The court further concluded that any deficiencies considered cumulatively would not probably have changed the trial's outcome.
