Ex Parte Kartis Ewing

Summary

The Court denied the petitioner's habeas corpus claim, holding that he was not denied effective assistance of counsel. The Court explained that isolated failures to object to hearsay or to extraneous evidence do not constitute ineffective assistance, and that no state action requirement was satisfied. The Court also declined to address pre‑trial preparation issues because they were not raised. The decision affirms the trial court's denial of relief.
