Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Boone County, Bethany Currie, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., Greer, J., and Scott, S.J. Opinion by Scott, S.J. (10 pages)
Hipolito Dubon Pantaleon (Dubon) appeals the denial of his application for postconviction relief. He argues the postconviction court abused its discretion in denying his request for an expert witness on false confessions at state expense and in rejecting his claims of ineffective assistance of his criminal defense attorney and associated claim of cumulative error. OPINION HOLDS: Finding no cause for reversal on the issues presented for our review, we affirm the denial of Dubon’s application for postconviction relief.
