U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 09-1651
U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota - Rapid City
[PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Wollman and Bye, Circuit Judges]
Habeas Case - section 2255. Because prior counsel's decision not to
object to the presentence report was an objectively reasonable decision
based on sound trial strategy, defendant did not satisfy the deficient-
performance prong of ineffective assistance of counsel claim. Counsel's
strategy at sentencing and on appeal in light of decision not to object to
PSR was not inconsistent.
