Seventh Circuit: USA v. Dante Graf

FRCrimP

Ineffective assistance of counsel in not informing deft that he could move for the disclosure of the identity of a confidential informant is not per se a basis for the subsequent withdrawal of guilty plea.  Insufficient showing under Strickland.

Fairness and justice requires that court look to see whether actual guilt or innocence is implicated.

Circuit split flagged.
