Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Webster County, Amy M. Moore, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., Tabor, J., and Scott, S.J. Opinion by Tabor, J. (8 pages)
Brody Walker appeals the denial of his action for postconviction relief. He contends his sentences for theft and robbery violate double jeopardy. He also claims trial counsel was ineffective in both the pre-trial investigation and plea hearing stages. OPINION HOLDS: Because robbery and theft are not the same offense for double jeopardy and trial counsel performed competently, we affirm.
