Jackson appealed the denial of his Rule 24.035 motion for post-conviction relief without an evidentiary hearing. Jackson had pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and claimed ineffective assistance of counsel, alleging his attorney failed to advise him of a lesser-included offense, coerced his guilty plea, and had a financial conflict of interest. The appellate court affirmed the motion court's judgment, finding that the record refuted Jackson's claims and he was not entitled to an evidentiary hearing.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=172516","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/rojai-r-jackson-appellant-v-state-of-missouri-respondent-108640","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":36,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
