Did a Brady violation occur within the context of the new statements made after the discovery process, and used in trial? Did counsel have an obligation to object or otherwise move to exclude the statements as being outside the scope of discovery? 3. Was trial counsel ineffective within the meaning of Strickland for “misplacing the trial record" and and notes, which disallowed appellate counsel to properly perfect the petitioner's direct appeal? 4.
