Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Did the Supreme Court err in failing to rule that the denial of the
Motion for New Trial due to trial counsel's conflict of interest
violated Petitioner's rights to counsel, to a fair trial, and to due
process of law?

2. Did the Supreme Court err in failing to rule that the denial of the
Motion for New Trial due to ineffective assistance of counsel and
on the basis of evidence of Petitioner's actual innocence violated
Petitioner's rights to present a defense, to a fair trial, and to due
process of law?

3. Should the Supreme Court have determined that the evidence
was insufficient to prove that Petitioner acted with premeditation
and deliberation and therefore Petitioner's conviction of first
degree murder was in violation of Petitioner's right to due process
of law?
