Supreme Court of Minnesota

Jeremy Jackson v. State of Minnesota

November 7, 2018919 N.W.2d 470

Summary

The Minnesota Supreme Court affirmed the post‑conviction court’s summary denial of Jackson’s petition, holding that his claims were procedurally barred by the Knaffla rule and that the court did not abuse its discretion. The Court also affirmed that the Knaffla rule applies even to claims raising federal constitutional rights such as due‑process and ineffective‑assistance arguments.
