Description

James Shedrick appeals from the District Courts denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 petition for habeas corpus alleging ineffective assistance of counsel on two grounds. The Government first contests our jurisdiction, however, because of an appellate and collateral-review waiver contained in Shedricks signed plea agreement. We conclude that we have jurisdiction over this appeal relating to ineffective-assistance-of-counsel claims; to hold otherwise could work a miscarriage of justice. We next affirm the District Courts denial of Shedricks claim that his counsel was ineffective for failing to advise him about sentencing matters, but conclude, contrary to the District Court, that ineffectiveness of counsel prevented Shedrick from timely appealing. Therefore, we vacate his sentence and remand this case with directions for the District Court to re-enter it. Shedrick will then be able to file a timely direct appeal, which we will consider in the normal course.
