Indiana Court of Appeals
Alberto Garcia-Rodriguez v. State of Indiana
No. 26A-PC-1121
Appeal from the Marion Superior Court, Magistrate Michelle Waymire. In this case, the court reversed the post-conviction court’s denial of Alberto Garcia-Rodriguez’s petition for post-conviction relief. The court concluded that Garcia-Rodriguez’s trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance by failing to properly prosecute a motion for dismissal under Indiana Criminal Rule 4(B) due to delays in his trial. The post-conviction court acknowledged counsel’s “critical error” but denied the petition based on an incorrect assumption that the trial court would have prioritized a non-speedy-trial case over Garcia-Rodriguez’s speedy-trial request. The appellate court determined that, under applicable legal standards, the trial court would have been required to dismiss the charges against Garcia-Rodriguez had his counsel proceeded correctly. Judge Mathias authored the opinion, with judges Kenworthy and DeBoer concurring. Appellant’s attorneys: Amy E. Karozos, Public Defender of Indiana; and Steven L. Nisi, Deputy Public Defender, Indianapolis. Appellee’s attorneys: Office of the Indiana Attorney General.
