Huston Foley Lloyd, Jr. v. State of Tennessee

The petitioner, Huston Foley Lloyd, Jr., appeals the summary dismissal of his petition for post-conviction relief, and the State concedes that summary dismissal was improper.  Because the petitioner stated a colorable claim for post-conviction relief, the post-conviction court erred by summarily dismissing the petition.  Accordingly, the judgment of the post-conviction court is reversed, and the case is remanded for an evidentiary hearing on the petitioner’s claims.
