Description
This is a proceeding for post conviction relief in which the prisoner, Hellard, attempts to have his conviction for armed robbery set aside upon allegations that his trial counsel, Mr. William Morrell, in his representation of the petitioner did not measure up to the standard of competence for counsel as set out by this Court in Baxter v. Rose, Tenn., 523 S.W.2d 930 (1975). The trial court sustained the petitioners insistence, holding that the Baxter standard was applicable to this case and that Mr. Morrell, in his representation of the defendant, "did not measure up to the standards required by Baxter." The Court of Criminal Appeals in a two-to-one decision affirmed the judgment of the trial court. We granted the States application for permission to appeal.
