Highlight

To establish ineffective assistance of counsel, the defendant must prove the counsel's performance was deficient and the deficient performance prejudiced the result.
An application for post-conviction relief may be denied for misuse of process if the applicant presents a claim for relief which the applicant inexcusably failed to raise either in a proceeding leading to judgment of conviction and sentence or in a previous post-conviction proceeding.
