State of Louisiana v. Waco Collins, Jr.

Summary

The Supreme Court of Louisiana denied the relator’s petition for post‑conviction relief, holding that he failed to show ineffective assistance of counsel under the Strickland standard and that his claims were barred as a successive filing under La.Cr.P. art. 930.4 and 930.8. The Court noted that while a plea bargain is a contract, the denial of relief was affirmed.
