State v. Burrow, 248 N.C. App. 663 (Aug. 2, 2016)
In this attempted felony breaking or entering and habitual felon case, the court rejected the defendant’s argument that he received ineffective assistance of counsel because his trial counsel did not attempt to introduce certain items into evidence. The defendant failed to show that counsel’s performance was deficient or that he was prejudiced by counsel’s action.
