TERRANCE REECE v. STATE OF TENNESSEE

Posted by: David Bevis on Jun 11, 2024

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Sherif Guindi, Knoxville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Terrance Reece.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Katherine C. Redding, Senior Assistant Attorney General; Charme P. Allen, District Attorney General; and Ta Kisha Fitzgerald, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): MONTGOMERY JR.

The Petitioner, Terrance Reece, appeals from the Knox County Criminal Court’s denial of post-conviction relief from his convictions for four counts of weapons violations, three counts of aggravated assault, and one count of vandalism and his effective twenty-two-year sentence. On appeal, the Petitioner contends that the post-conviction court erred by denying relief on his ineffective assistance of counsel claims and that he was prejudiced by the cumulative effect of counsel’s multiple instances of deficient performance. We reverse the judgment of the post-conviction court and remand this case for a new trial.
