Description
Daniel Jacob Johns seeks leave to appeal under the Post Conviction Procedure Act from an order denying his petition for relief, which was filed by Judge Harris following a hearing in open court. The petitioner seeks relief on three grounds: (1) the State knowingly presented perjured testimony at the trial; (2) the State suppressed evidence of an oral exculpatory statement made by the petitioner to the police; and (3) his court-appointed counsel was incompetent. Judge Harris heard witnesses as to these contentions and filed a detailed opinion. We think he was correct in denying relief.
