HARWELL, Justice:
We granted the State's petition for writ of certiorari to review the order of the postconviction relief (PCR) judge granting respondent Bryan Arnette a new trial. The issue on appeal is whether trial counsel was ineffective because he allowed respondent to plead guilty to voluntary manslaughter without first discussing with him the possibility of the defense of accident.
