JACKSON v. WASHINGTON

Record No. 042130.

619 S.E.2d 92 (2005)

270 Va. 269

Paradice Carnell JACKSON, II v. Gerald K. WASHINGTON, Warden, Buckingham Correctional Center.

Supreme Court of Virginia.

September 16, 2005.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Gail Starling Marshall for appellant.

Robert H. Anderson, III, Senior Asst. Atty. General (Judith Williams Jagdmann, Atty. General, on brief), for appellee.

Present: All the Justices.

KOONTZ, Jr., Justice.

This appeal arises from a judgment of the Circuit Court of Stafford County dismissing a petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed by Paradice Carnell Jackson, II. The sole issue we consider is whether the circuit court erred in denying Jackson's claim in the petition that his trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance of counsel by failing to object to Jackson being tried before a jury while wearing a jail-issued "jumpsuit."
