Timothy JERMAN v. DIRECTOR OF the DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS.

Supreme Court of Virginia.

March 5, 2004.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David B. Hargett (Hargett & Watson, on brief), Richmond, for petitioner.

Robert H. Anderson, III, Senior Assistant Attorney General (Jerry W. Kilgore, Attorney General, on brief), for respondent.

Present: LACY, KEENAN, KOONTZ, KINSER, LEMONS, and AGEE, JJ., and COMPTON, S.J.


KINSER, Justice.

In this petition for writ of habeas corpus filed under the Court's original jurisdiction, we address claims of ineffective assistance of counsel with regard to the petitioner's conviction for abduction. Concluding that there is not a reasonable probability that, but for counsel's alleged deficiencies, the outcome of the proceeding would have been different, we will dismiss the petition.
