Jones argued his 15-year sentence as a prior and persistent offender exceeded the maximum authorized by law due to insufficient proof of prior felonies, and that his plea counsel was ineffective for admitting prior convictions without his consent. The appellate court affirmed, holding that Jones waived objections to the sufficiency of proof by his and his counsel's admissions, and that the record refuted his claim of ineffective assistance as he had expressed satisfaction with counsel.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review","evidence"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=170679","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/antonio-d-jones-appellant-v-state-of-missouri-respondent-108508","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":38,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction","text: sentence"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
