Description

The State of New Mexico appeals from the district court's grant of a writ of habeas corpus to prisoner Donald Duncan. This appeal raises two issues: (1) whether the doctrine of res judicata bars a defendant's postconviction claim of ineffective assistance of counsel when the same claim has been denied on the merits in a direct appeal, and (2) whether the trial court erred in granting petitioner's writ of habeas corpus on the grounds of ineffective assistance of counsel. We hold that the doctrine of res judicata does not apply in this particular case, and affirm the trial court's grant of habeas corpus relief on the grounds of ineffective assistance of counsel.
