Kelly Lee Pitts v. State of Tennessee

The Petitioner, Kelly Lee Pitts, appeals the dismissal of his petition for post-conviction
relief from his attempted first degree murder and possession of a firearm during the
commission of or attempt to commit a dangerous felony convictions and his effective
forty-eight year sentence. On appeal, the Petitioner contends that (1) the post-conviction
court erred by summarily dismissing the petition after determining it was untimely and
(2) he failed to receive the effective assistance of counsel at trial. We affirm the
judgment of the trial court.
