Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Black Hawk County, Andrea J. Dryer, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Tabor, P.J., Buller, J., and Blane, S.J. Opinion by Tabor, P.J. (7 pages)
An applicant appeals the denial of postconviction relief on his felony stalking charge. He asserts his trial counsel was ineffective for not objecting and for not offering evidence to support his defense. OPINION HOLDS: Because the applicant does not carry his burden to show the attorney breached a material duty in defending the stalking charge and finding trial counsel performed with reasonable competence in representing him, we affirm the denial of postconviction relief.
