Court of Criminal Appeals of Alabama September 21, 1990, CR 89-278 (Smith v. State)

BOWEN, Judge.

This is an appeal from the denial of a petition for post-conviction relief. The petitioner challenges his 1989 conviction for assault. The main issue in the petition is whether the petitioner was denied his right to appeal due to the ineffective assistance of counsel. See Longmire v. State, 443 So.2d 1265 (Ala.1982).
