United States Tenth Circuit

A decision denying post-conviction relief, where petitioner argued that counsel was deficient for not arguing that there was insufficient evidence for the jury to convict petitioner of kidnapping under Kansas law, did not constitute an unreasonable application of Strickland v. Washington, 366 U.S. 688 (1984).
