Ineffective Assistance of Counsel
Respondent was adjudicated delinquent as to unlawful delivery of controlled substance within 1000 feet of church, school, or park, and sentenced to 12 months probation. State petitioned to revoke probation soon afterward, and court advised Respondent of minimum and maximum possible penalties. At hearing one month later, Respondent admitted to violating probation, but did not advise Respondent of possible penalties. Reasonable person in Respondent's position would have understood sentencing range, as short length of time elapsed since Rule 402A admonishments had been given, and as Respondent was similarly admonished when he pled guilty. No ineffective assistance of counsel claim, as Respondent failed to indicate what sentencing issue counsel should have raised.
