Description
On January 4, 1990, Walter Watson filed a petition under 28 U.S.C. 2254 in the United States District Court for the District of New Mexico. In the petition, Watson alleged that he had been convicted in a state court of New Mexico for sexual contact of a minor and sentenced to a term of imprisonment and a one-year mandatory parole upon release. As grounds for relief from the conviction and sentence thus suffered, Watson urged four grounds: (1) the state statute under which he was convicted, N.M. Stat. Ann. 30-9-13 (1978), is unconstitutionally vague and overbroad; (2) the state failed to meet its burden of proof by failing to prove the crime charged; (3) the information failed to give notice of the crime charged; and (4) ineffective assistance of counsel both in the state trial court and the state appellate court.
