Nebraska Supreme Court

State v. Garcia

December 20, 2024318 Neb. 228

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Garcia’s motion for a new trial because his motion and supporting materials did not allege newly discovered evidence substantial enough to make a different verdict probable or to warrant an evidentiary hearing. The court also rejected Garcia’s ineffective-assistance claim because, even assuming a right to counsel in the new-trial proceeding, he could not establish prejudice. No separate opinions were filed.
