The appellate court affirmed the trial court's judgment. The court found that Haggerman received a meaningful hearing and that his allegations of ineffective assistance were insufficient to warrant an evidentiary hearing under the Strickland standard, as he failed to allege facts showing deficient performance or prejudice.","primaryTopic":"civil-procedure","topicSlugs":["civil-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review","other"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=182973","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/in-the-matter-of-the-care-and-treatment-of-justin-haggerman-aka-justin-c-d84144","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":20,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
