Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District / Jun 19, 2018
Christopher Chatman, Appellant, vs. State of Missouri, Respondent.
Christopher Chatman appealed the denial of his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief, arguing abandonment by counsel due to a conflict of interest, and also challenged the denial of his motion for change of judge. The Eastern District of the Missouri Court of Appeals affirmed the denial of post-conviction relief, finding no factual support for the alleged conflict of interest or abandonment. The court dismissed the appeal regarding the motion for change of judge due to Chatman's failure to comply with mandatory briefing requirements under Rule 84.04.
