Heading Depth: 3
Heading Rank: 1

Heading: Counsel failed to thoroughly investigate the nature and quantity of the evidence destroyed and, therefore, failed to present a full and accurate representation to the court.

Text: This issue was presented to the court in a pretrial motion to dismiss and was substantially raised on appeal. Although there are some differences between the evidence listed in the instant Motion and that argued before the court in the Motion to Dismiss, those differences are immaterial. Claims previously raised on direct appeal cannot be raised under the guise of ineffective assistance of counsel in a collateral proceeding. See Sireci v. State, 469 So.2d 119 (Fla. 1985), cert. denied, 478 U.S. 1010 [106 S.Ct. 3308, 92 L.Ed.2d 721] (1986).
