Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: J. Liddell Kirk, Madisonville, Tennessee (on appeal); and King Allah James, Chattanooga, Tennessee, Pro Se (in the post-conviction court).

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Richard D. Douglas, Senior Assistant Attorney General; and Coty Wamp, District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WILSON

Petitioner, King Allah James, appeals the post-conviction court’s summary denial of his petition for post-conviction relief in which he challenged his guilty pleaded convictions for assault, vandalism, and two counts of aggravated assault and his effective six-year sentence. On appeal, Petitioner contends that the post-conviction court erred in finding that he failed to establish a colorable claim for relief. Upon review, we affirm the judgment of the post-conviction court.
