District Court of Appeal of Florida


Hartley v. State of Florida, 2D05-5728

Summary denial of a motion for postconviction relief from a conviction for attempted robbery is affirmed in part, but reversed in part as to a claim that counsel was ineffective for failing to ameliorate the negative effect that admissions to prior convictions might have had on the jury, where the postconviction court erred as a matter of law when it ruled that the claims were not cognizable.
