Question Presented (AI Summary)
Whether the court's prejudice prong in Strickland v. Washington is satisfied when an attorney admits to ineffective assistance and the defendant rejects a favorable plea, resulting in an enhanced sentence
Question Presented (OCR Extract)
QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW This Court in Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 80 L.Ed.2d 674, 104 S.Ct. 2052 (1984), laid the foundation for the gauging of ineffective assistance of counsel claims. When an attorney admits to this ineffectiveness and the Defendant rejects a favorable plea, does the subsequent enhanced sentence justify the court’s prejudice prong presented in Strickland. | IL
