Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District / Jun 3, 2025
Bryan K. Reid, Appellant, v. State of Missouri, Respondent.
Bryan Reid appealed the denial of his Rule 24.035 motion for post-conviction relief, alleging ineffective assistance of plea counsel. He claimed counsel failed to investigate jurisdictional and evidentiary issues, and misadvised him on sex-offender registration and probation release. The appellate court affirmed the denial of relief on the investigation claims and the probation advice claim, finding them waived or refuted by the record. However, the court reversed and remanded for an evidentiary hearing on the claim that counsel misadvised him about the lifetime sex-offender registration requirement, as this claim was not refuted by the record.
