TABORN v. STATE (2018)

Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District.

Anthony TABORN, Appellant, v. STATE of Missouri, Respondent.

WD 80540

Decided: March 27, 2018

Before Division Four: Mark D. Pfeiffer, Chief Judge, Presiding, Cynthia L. Martin, Judge and Edward R. Ardini, Jr., Judge

Steven B. Willibey, Kansas City, MO, for appellant. Julia E. Neidhardt, Jefferson City, MO, for respondent.

ORDER

Anthony L. Taborn appeals the denial of his Rule 29.15 motion and argues that it was error to deny his claim that appellate counsel was ineffective when she failed to raise a claim of error on direct appeal involving the admission of uncharged misconduct evidence at trial. Because appellate counsel's strategic decision not to raise this issue on direct appeal was reasonable, we affirm. Rule 84.16(b).
