Opinion filed March 10, 1999. JANUARY TERM, A.D. 1999
An Appeal under Fla.R.App.P. 9.140(i) from the Circuit Court for Dade County, Thomas S. Wilson, Jr., Judge, L.T. No. 94-8260.
Kevin McPhee, in proper person.
Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, for appellee.
Before JORGENSON, GERSTEN and SORONDO, JJ.
We reverse the order summarily denying defendant's motion for postconviction relief as to grounds two (c) and three of defendant's motion and remand for an evidentiary hearing. The record before this Court does not conclusively refute defendant's allegations of ineffective assistance of trial counsel as to his attorney's misadvice concerning the potential consequence of testifying and failure to call an alibi witness. See Fla.R.App.P. 9.140(i); Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.850(d); Wilcox v. State, 622 So.2d 132 (Fla. 3d DCA 1993). We affirm the denial of postconviction relief on the remaining issues.
Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded for further proceedings consistent herewith.
