Court of Appeals of Indiana
Loren Wayne Tidwell v. State of Indiana (mem. dec.)
23A-PC-55
Post-conviction relief. Affirms the denial of Loren Tidwell’s petition for post-conviction relief. Finds Tidwell’s right to due process was not infringed in the underlying post-conviction proceedings. Also finds Tidwell has not demonstrated that the post-conviction court’s conclusion that trial counsel rendered effective assistance was clearly erroneous. Finally, finds PCR counsel’s performance did not deprive Tidwell of a procedurally fair proceeding.
