Supreme Court of Louisiana

State of Louisiana v. Dumauriea Leon McGee

February 25, 2019264 So. 3d 445

Summary

The Supreme Court of Louisiana granted the writ, reversed the appellate court’s remand, and sent the case back for the court of appeal to consider the previously omitted assignments of error. It held that the defendant failed to show ineffective assistance of counsel on all three asserted claims, and therefore no evidentiary hearing was required at this stage.
